OVERVIEW

Maximum Removal with XTRACUT™ Technology

The Walter 15A506 Xtracut Sanding Disc is engineered for the most demanding steel fabrication environments where speed and efficiency are non-negotiable. Featuring advanced self-sharpening ceramic grains, this 5-inch coarse disc delivers an aggressive cut that maintains its intensity throughout the life of the product. Unlike conventional aluminum oxide abrasives that dull and glaze over quickly, the ceramic structure of the Xtracut grain is designed to micro-fracture under pressure. This continuous fracturing process reveals fresh, sharp cutting edges, ensuring consistent stock removal rates from the first spark to the very last pass.

Heat management is a critical factor in heavy-duty grinding and sanding, as excessive heat can compromise the structural integrity of the metal. The Xtracut disc incorporates specialized cooling agents directly into the bonding matrix. This active cooling technology significantly reduces surface temperature during operation, preventing heat discoloration, warping, and distortion of the workpiece. This makes it an ideal choice for aggressive hogging and blending on heat-sensitive steel components where maintaining the base material's properties is paramount.

Designed for industrial efficiency, this sanding disc minimizes the downtime associated with frequent disc changes. Its exceptional durability means fewer changeovers and lower total abrasive costs per project. Whether you are leveling heavy welds, removing stubborn mill scale, or shaping steel profiles, the Walter Xtracut provides the bite and longevity required for high-volume production. To achieve optimal performance and safety, this fiber disc should be paired with a high-performance backing pad that matches the torque and speed capabilities of your angle grinder.

By choosing the Walter Xtracut, you are investing in a premium abrasive solution that balances aggressive removal with operator comfort. The consistent cutting action reduces the amount of pressure the operator needs to apply, leading to less fatigue over long shifts. It is the ultimate tool for fabricators who demand superior results on steel surfaces.

FAQ

The Walter Xtracut is specifically optimized for use on steel, providing aggressive stock removal and long life on this material.

Yes, this is a resin fiber sanding disc and requires a compatible backing pad for safe and effective operation on an angle grinder.

Ceramic grains are self-sharpening; they fracture to reveal new sharp edges, maintaining a high cut rate significantly longer than aluminum oxide or zirconia.

No, it features special cooling agents in the bond that help dissipate heat, preventing burning or discoloration of the metal workpiece.

This is a Coarse grit disc, designed for rapid material removal, weld grinding, and heavy blending rather than fine finishing.

This disc has a 5-inch diameter, making it suitable for standard 5-inch angle grinders.

While ceramic grains can cut stainless, the Xtracut line is optimized for steel. For stainless steel, Walter recommends their Coolcut XX series.

Its long service life means fewer disc changes are required, reducing downtime and the total number of discs needed to complete a job.
