Walter 7-Inch 60 Grit General Purpose Bench Grinder Wheel

Reliable Grinding for Your Shop

Every welder and fabricator knows that a good bench grinder is the heartbeat of the shop. Whether you are sharpening tungsten, dressing a chisel, or deburring a cut piece of steel, the quality of your grinding wheel matters. The Walter 7" x 1" Bench Grinding Wheel (Model 12E447) is built to take the abuse of daily shop life while giving you the performance you need to keep your tools sharp and your projects moving. With a 60-grit rating, this wheel is the perfect "middle ground"—aggressive enough to take off metal quickly when you need to reshape a part, but fine enough to put a keen edge on a drill bit or scraper.

One Wheel, Multiple Jobs

Stop wasting time swapping out wheels every time you switch materials. This Walter wheel is engineered to work on both Steel and Carbide. This is a huge time-saver for busy shops. You can go from cleaning up a steel bracket to touching up a carbide lathe tool without skipping a beat. The 1-inch width gives you plenty of surface area to work with, helping you keep your tools flat and your grinds straight. It’s a workhorse component that earns its keep on any pedestal or bench grinder.

Fits Whatever Grinder You Have

There is nothing more annoying than buying a new wheel only to find out the hole is the wrong size for your machine. Walter solved this problem by including a set of nested reducer bushings with every wheel. Out of the box, it fits a 1-inch shaft, but the bushings let you step it down to 3/4", 5/8", or 1/2". Whether you have an old heavy-duty industrial grinder or a standard shop bench grinder, this wheel is ready to mount up and spin true. The bushings are designed to sit tight, ensuring the wheel stays centered and safe.

Built to Last

Walter Surface Technologies doesn't make cheap throw-away abrasives. This wheel is designed for long life, meaning it holds its shape longer and doesn't wear down to a nub after a few heavy grinding sessions. A balanced wheel means less wobble, which keeps your grinder from walking across the bench and makes your grinding safer and more precise. Upgrade your station with a wheel that works as hard as you do.
