14A918A - Walter Coolcut 9x11 Inch 180 Grit Cloth Abrasive Sheet

Premium Manual Finishing with Walter Coolcut Technology

The Walter 14A918A Coolcut Sheet is a high-performance abrasive solution designed for professionals who demand consistency and durability in their manual finishing operations. Measuring a standard 9 inches by 11 inches, this sheet is engineered with premium aluminum oxide grain, a material renowned for its toughness and ability to self-sharpen during use. This ensures that the abrasive maintains a high cut rate throughout its lifespan, reducing the effort required by the operator and increasing overall shop productivity.

At the core of the Coolcut sheet's performance is its robust construction. The abrasive grains are securely anchored to a high-quality cotton cloth backing using a specialized resin bonding agent. This resin bond not only maximizes grain retention—preventing premature shedding—but also aids in heat dissipation, keeping the workpiece cooler during vigorous sanding. The cotton cloth backing provides the necessary flexibility to conform to irregular shapes, cylinders, and tight corners, making it an excellent choice for maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) tasks where machine sanding is not feasible.

With a 180 grit rating, this specific sheet is tailored for fine finishing applications. It is the ideal step for smoothing out scratch patterns left by coarser abrasives, preparing surfaces for painting or coating, and performing light deburring on precision parts. The versatility of the Coolcut line allows it to be used effectively on a wide range of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and even wood. Whether used by hand or attached to a sanding block, the Walter 14A918A delivers a uniform surface finish that meets the rigorous standards of industrial fabrication and manufacturing environments.

Investing in quality abrasives like the Walter Coolcut series translates to direct cost savings through extended product life and reduced downtime. Inferior sandpapers often tear or clog quickly, leading to waste and frustration. Walter's commitment to quality ensures that every sheet provides maximum utility, making it a staple consumable for machine shops, welding stations, and maintenance departments alike.
