OVERVIEW

Precision Finishing with Walter Spinlock Technology

The Walter Spinlock A/O Resin Fiber Disc (SKU: 09D212) represents a high-standard solution for industrial surface conditioning and finishing. Engineered with a premium blend of Aluminum Oxide (A/O) grains, this 3-inch disc is designed to deliver consistent material removal rates while maintaining a high-quality surface finish. The resin fiber construction provides the necessary rigidity for edge work while retaining enough flexibility to contour slightly to the workpiece, making it an exceptional choice for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) environments where precision is paramount.

One of the standout features of this abrasive is the Spinlock quick-change attachment system. Compatible with standard Type R backing pads, the Spinlock mechanism allows operators to switch between grits or replace worn discs in seconds, significantly reducing non-productive downtime. This is particularly advantageous in multi-step finishing processes where moving from a coarse grit to a fine 120 grit is required to achieve the desired surface profile. The 3-inch diameter is specifically optimized for confined spaces, allowing technicians to reach into corners, channels, and complex geometries that larger 4.5-inch or 5-inch discs cannot access.

Ideally suited for a wide range of materials, including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, this disc minimizes cross-contamination risks when used according to best practices. The 120 grit rating indicates a fine abrasive structure, perfect for the final stages of weld blending, removing light oxidation, or preparing surfaces for painting and coating. By maintaining a cool cutting action, the Walter Spinlock disc helps prevent heat discoloration on sensitive alloys, ensuring the structural integrity and aesthetic quality of the base metal are preserved.

In summary, the Walter 09D212 combines durability, efficiency, and versatility. It is a consumable that meets the rigorous demands of professional fabrication shops, automotive repair facilities, and industrial manufacturing plants. Whether used for deburring, blending, or general surface improvement, this resin fiber disc delivers reliable performance that professionals trust.

FAQ

This disc is designed for use with right-angle die grinders equipped with a 3-inch backing pad that accepts Spinlock (Type R) attachments.

Yes, the Aluminum Oxide grain is suitable for aluminum, as well as steel and stainless steel. For extended work on aluminum, ensure you monitor for loading.

Spinlock is Walter's quick-change attachment system, similar to the industry-standard Type R (plastic threaded button), allowing for tool-free disc changes.

This is a Resin Fiber Disc. While it is used for similar blending tasks, it consists of a single layer of coated abrasive on a fiber backing, rather than layered flaps.

120 grit is a fine abrasive used for final blending, smoothing out scratch patterns from coarser grits, and preparing surfaces for painting or polishing.

Yes, a compatible 3-inch backing pad with a Spinlock/Type R connection is required to use this disc safely and effectively.

Always check the disc label for the specific Max RPM. Generally, 3-inch quick-change discs are rated for high-speed die grinders, often up to 20,000 RPM, but verification is essential.

Resin fiber backing is significantly stiffer and more durable than paper, allowing for more aggressive cutting and better resistance to heat and tearing during metalworking.
