OVERVIEW

Secure Fit for Grinding Wheels and Brushes

Welders and fabricators know that equipment compatibility is key to keeping a shop running smoothly. The Walter 12E010 Nested Bushing Set is a simple yet indispensable tool for adapting your abrasive wheels to fit your specific grinders. If you have a wire wheel or grinding stone with a large 1-1/4 inch center hole but your bench grinder has a smaller shaft, this set is the solution. It eliminates the frustration of mismatched equipment and ensures you can use your preferred abrasives on the tools you already own.

Safety is paramount when working with rotating abrasives. A wheel that isn't properly seated on the shaft can wobble, creating safety hazards and ruining your workpiece. These Walter bushings are designed to provide a snug, secure interface between the machine shaft and the wheel. The set effectively reduces the 1-1/4 inch opening down to 1 inch, 3/4 inch, 5/8 inch, or 1/2 inch, covering the vast majority of bench and pedestal grinders found in welding shops. The 1-inch width provides ample support across the thickness of the wheel.

Made from durable materials capable of withstanding the compression and torque of grinding operations, these bushings are built to last. They are easy to install—simply slide the appropriate bushing into the wheel's arbor hole before mounting it to the machine. Keep a set in your toolbox or tool crib to ensure you are never stuck with a wheel you can't mount. Trust Walter Surface Technologies for accessories that enhance the functionality and safety of your shop equipment.
