Walter 48-L-022 Spacer Washer for 5/8-11 Grinder Spindles

Get the Perfect Fit for Your Grinder

Don't let a small part stop a big job. The Walter 48L022 Spacer is the unsung hero in your toolbox, ensuring that your angle grinder accessories fit perfectly every time. We've all been there: you have a new backing pad or a specialized wheel, but when you go to mount it, it just doesn't sit right on the spindle. Maybe the threads bottom out before it's tight, or maybe it rubs against the guard. That's where this high-quality spacer comes in. It provides the exact spacing needed to mount your Walter abrasives securely and safely.

Built by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in surface treatment solutions, this spacer is made to last. It isn't a flimsy washer that will bend or warp; it's a solid piece of steel designed to handle the rigors of daily grinding, cutting, and blending. It fits standard 5/8"-11 spindles, making it a versatile addition to any welder's or fabricator's kit. Whether you are prepping a weld seam or polishing stainless steel, having the right hardware means your tools run smoother and your results look better.

Why You Need This Spacer

Using the wrong washer—or worse, no washer at all—can lead to wobbly wheels and dangerous vibrations. This not only ruins your work piece but can also damage your grinder and pose a safety risk. The 48L022 Spacer eliminates the guesswork. It is specifically recommended for use with certain Walter backing pads and systems to ensure the geometry is exactly as the engineers intended. It’s a small investment that protects your expensive power tools and consumables.
