Walter Reducing Bushing Set, 1-1/4 in. OD to 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, 1 in. ID, 3/4 in. Width

Fit Any Wheel to Your Grinder

There is nothing more frustrating than buying a new wire wheel or grinding stone for your bench grinder, only to get back to the shop and realize the center hole is too big for your machine's shaft. The Walter 12-E-006 Reducing Bushing set is the simple, effective solution to this common problem. Instead of returning the wheel or trying to rig up a dangerous homemade spacer, this professional-grade bushing set allows you to adapt a standard 1-1/4 inch arbor hole to fit perfectly on 1 inch, 3/4 inch, 5/8 inch, or 1/2 inch shafts.

Designed for welders and fabricators who need their equipment to work as hard as they do, these bushings are made from tough plastic that won't crumble when you tighten down the flange nut. The smart telescopic design means you have all the common sizes in one piece—just keep the layers you need and remove the ones you don't. The 3/4 inch width is standard for most bench wheels, ensuring a snug, secure fit that keeps your wheel running true and vibration-free. Reducing vibration is key to getting a good finish and extending the life of your grinder's bearings.

Whether you are mounting a crimped wire wheel for cleaning parts or a vitrified stone for sharpening tungsten, this adapter ensures you can use the best abrasives on the market, regardless of what brand or vintage of grinder you have on your bench. Keep a few of these in your toolbox or drawer so you are never stuck with the wrong size wheel again.
