15L463 - Walter Flexcut 4.5 Inch Flexible Grinding Wheel 36 Grit Blending Disc

Walter Flexcut 15L463 Flexible Grinding Wheel

For over a quarter of a century, the Walter Flexcut™ series has set the industrial standard for flexible grinding wheels, delivering unmatched performance in metal fabrication and maintenance operations. The 15L463 is a 4-1/2 inch by 7/8 inch blending disc featuring a coarse 36 grit, designed to bridge the gap between heavy-duty grinding wheels and surface-finishing sanding discs. This product is engineered for professionals who require versatility, efficiency, and precision in a single abrasive tool.

The core innovation of the Flexcut 15L463 lies in its proprietary Diamond-Cut pattern. This surface design promotes high material removal rates while facilitating significant airflow, resulting in "cool grinding." By keeping the workpiece temperature low, this wheel minimizes the risk of heat discoloration and warping, which is particularly critical when working with heat-sensitive alloys like stainless steel. Furthermore, the specialized formulation ensures that the wheel remains free of clogging and loading, making it an exceptional choice for working with soft, non-ferrous metals such as aluminum.

Industrial efficiency is maximized through the Flexcut's ability to act as a one-step finishing solution. Operators can grind down welds and blend surfaces seamlessly without changing tools, significantly reducing downtime and abrasive costs. Its inherent flexibility allows the wheel to conform to curved surfaces and contours, ensuring a consistent finish without the risk of gouging or undercutting the base material. Whether you are removing heavy welds or preparing a surface for painting, the Walter 15L463 provides a superior, cost-effective solution for demanding MRO and fabrication environments.
