11W403 - Walter Allsteel 4-Inch Type 1 Cut-Off Wheel for Steel and Stainless

High-Performance Cutting for Die Grinders

The Walter Allsteel 4" x 1/32" x 3/8" T1 Cut-Off Wheel (SKU: 11W403) is a premium abrasive tool designed for professionals who demand speed, precision, and safety in their metalworking operations. Manufactured in Germany, this wheel is part of Walter Surface Technologies' renowned Allsteel line, which is engineered to deliver exceptional performance across a variety of industrial applications. The wheel features a Type 1 flat profile, making it ideal for cutting tasks that require deep penetration and straight cuts, particularly when using straight shaft or die grinders.

One of the standout features of the Allsteel series is its formulation. These wheels are constructed from high-quality bonded aluminum oxide grains that provide a fast cut rate without sacrificing wheel life. Crucially for fabricators working with sensitive materials, the 11W403 is guaranteed to be free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine. This contaminant-free composition ensures that the wheel will not induce corrosion or rust on stainless steel surfaces, making it a safe and reliable choice for food processing equipment, pharmaceutical machinery, and other high-purity applications.

With a thickness of just 1/32 of an inch, this wheel slices through metal with minimal resistance. The thin kerf reduces the amount of material removed, which in turn lowers the heat generated during the cutting process. This is particularly beneficial when working with stainless steel, as it helps preserve the material's properties and prevents discoloration. Whether you are cutting tubing, bar stock, or sheet metal, the Walter Allsteel wheel provides a clean, burr-free finish that reduces the need for subsequent deburring or grinding.

Designed for versatility, this cut-off wheel is compatible with both pneumatic and electric die grinders equipped with a 3/8-inch arbor. Its robust construction ensures stability during operation, providing the operator with confidence and control. For maintenance and repair operations (MRO), general fabrication, and automotive work, the Walter 11W403 offers a perfect balance of speed, life, and safety.
