OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade General Purpose Sanding Discs

The Walter 15C706 Coolcut Sanding Disc is a staple abrasive for industrial fabrication shops requiring consistent performance and economic value. Engineered with premium aluminum oxide grains, these 7-inch discs are designed to handle the rigors of daily steel fabrication, from light weld removal to surface preparation. The Coolcut series distinguishes itself through a specialized manufacturing process where abrasive grains are applied electrostatically. This ensures that the sharpest points of the grain are oriented outward towards the workpiece, resulting in an aggressive initial cut and a sustained removal rate throughout the life of the disc.

Heat management is critical in metal finishing, and the Coolcut disc addresses this with its specialized bonding agents that promote cool cutting action. This feature is particularly beneficial when working on carbon steel, as it helps prevent heat discoloration and warping of thinner materials. The disc is built upon a robust vulcanized fibre backing, which provides the necessary rigidity to withstand high-pressure grinding while maintaining enough flexibility to contour slightly to the workpiece surface. This structural integrity ensures safety and longevity, reducing the frequency of disc changes in high-volume production environments.

For facility managers and procurement specialists, the 15C706 represents a reliable "workhorse" abrasive. It delivers a predictable finish and removal rate, allowing for accurate estimation of consumable usage. The 60 grit specification offers a versatile middle ground, aggressive enough to remove light scale and weld spatter, yet fine enough to leave a surface profile suitable for painting or further finishing steps. Compatible with standard 7-inch angle grinders and appropriate backing pads, these discs integrate seamlessly into existing tool inventories.

Key Industrial Benefits

  • Cost-Effective Performance: Delivers a high removal rate at a competitive price point, optimizing total cost of sanding.
  • Thermal Management: Cool cutting properties reduce the risk of thermal damage to the substrate.
  • Consistent Finish: Electrostatic grain alignment ensures a uniform scratch pattern.
  • Durable Backing: Heavy-duty fibre backing resists tearing and edge wear during operation.

FAQ

The Walter Coolcut 15C706 is designed primarily for general purpose sanding on steel and ferrous metals.

Yes, resin fibre discs like the 15C706 require a backing pad (typically a 7-inch pad with a 7/8" arbor) for support and safety during operation.

This specific disc is 60 grit, which is a medium-coarse grit suitable for light stock removal, blending, and cleaning.

The maximum safe operating speed for this 7-inch fibre disc is typically 8,600 RPM. Always check the disc label and your grinder's rating.

While it can physically abrade stainless steel, the standard Coolcut line is optimized for mild steel. For stainless steel, Walter's Coolcut XX or Topcut series are generally recommended for better performance and to avoid contamination.

These discs are typically packaged in quantities of 25 per pack.

Coolcut discs utilize an electrostatic grain application process and special bonding agents to ensure cooler cutting temperatures and a higher removal rate compared to standard economy discs.

No, vulcanized fibre discs are sensitive to humidity and moisture. They should be stored in a dry place to prevent curling and degradation.
