Walter Surface Technologies 11L312 Type 1 Cut-off Wheel

Product Description

The WALTER SURFACE TECHNOLOGIES 11L312 is a Type 1 (01/41) reinforced aluminum oxide cut-off wheel designed for precision cutting in die grinder applications. At 3 inches in diameter and 1/16 inches thick, this thin-kerf wheel delivers clean, fast cuts on steel and stainless steel. The resinoid bond holds the 24-grit aluminum oxide abrasive firmly during aggressive cutting passes. Rated to 25,470 RPM, it operates safely within the speed range of standard die grinders. The 1/4 inches arbor hole provides a secure, centered fit on compatible spindles. Trade professionals in metal fabrication, HVAC, and mechanical service rely on this wheel for tight-clearance cutoff work.

This cut-off wheel is suited for use on steel and stainless steel in both shop and field environments. Its compact 3 inches diameter makes it well-matched to right-angle and inline die grinders used by pipefitters, HVAC technicians, welders, and general metalworkers. The Type 1 flat-profile geometry allows straight plunge and cutoff cuts. Applications include cutting tube, rod, strapping, and light structural steel in residential and commercial mechanical work.

Installation Notes

Cut-off wheels must be installed and operated by qualified personnel following ANSI B7.1 and the tool manufacturer's safety guidelines. Always verify the tool's rated RPM meets or exceeds the wheel's 25,470 RPM maximum before mounting. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and replace any damaged wheel immediately. Wear appropriate PPE including a face shield and never stand in the plane of wheel rotation during operation.
