Walter Surface Technologies 11F042 Type 1 Cutoff Wheel

Product Description

The WALTER SURFACE TECHNOLOGIES 11F042 is a Type 1 flat cutoff wheel designed for use with angle grinders in demanding metalworking and fabrication environments. It measures 4.5 inches in diameter with a 0.05 inch (3/64 inch) thickness and a 7/8 inch arbor hole. The wheel is constructed from reinforced aluminum oxide abrasive with a resinoid bond and a 60 grit designation, rated to a maximum of 13,300 RPM. The ultra-thin profile reduces material loss and heat buildup during cuts. This wheel is engineered for cutting stainless steel and similar hard metals in trade and industrial settings.

This cutoff wheel is suited for professional metalworkers, pipefitters, welders, and fabricators working with stainless steel in both shop and field environments. The 4.5 inch diameter fits standard right-angle grinders commonly used in HVAC, plumbing, and structural fabrication. The A60 specification indicates an aluminum oxide grain with 60 grit, appropriate for clean, controlled cuts on ferrous and stainless steel stock. Wheels are sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 25 units per order.

Installation Notes

Cutoff wheels must be installed and operated by personnel familiar with angle grinder safety practices. Always verify the grinder's rated RPM meets or exceeds the wheel's 13,300 RPM maximum before mounting. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never use a damaged wheel. Wear appropriate PPE including face shield, gloves, and hearing protection during operation.
