Walter Surface Technologies 06F458 Flap Disc 80 Grit Type 27

Product Description

The WALTER SURFACE TECHNOLOGIES 06F458 is a Type 27 flap disc from the Enduro-Flex Stainless series, engineered for grinding and finishing stainless steel. The disc measures 4.5 inches in diameter with a 5/8-11 threaded arbor hole for fast mounting to compatible angle grinders. Running at a maximum of 13,300 RPM, it carries an 80-grit medium-grade abrasive coating on a wood fiber backing. The trimmable design allows the operator to expose fresh abrasive as the disc wears, extending usable life. Licensed trades and fabricators working on stainless steel surfaces rely on this disc for consistent stock removal without cross-contamination concerns.

The 06F458 is suited for residential and commercial metal fabrication, structural work, and maintenance applications where stainless steel must be ground or blended. Its Type 27 flat profile keeps the abrasive face nearly parallel to the work surface, making it effective on flat stock, weld seams, and flush grinding tasks. The medium 80-grit rating balances cut rate with surface finish, reducing the need for an additional conditioning step in many workflows.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified operators familiar with angle grinder safety. Always verify the grinder spindle speed does not exceed the 13,300 RPM maximum disc rating before mounting. Inspect the disc for damage before each use and discard any disc showing cracks, tears, or delamination. Follow ANSI B7.1 safety standards and wear appropriate PPE including a face shield when operating.
