OVERVIEW

Don't Let Aluminum Clog Your Grind

Every welder knows the frustration of grinding aluminum: you start working, and within seconds, your standard burr is packed full of soft metal, rendering it useless. The Walter 01V069 Carbide Burr solves this problem with a purpose-built design for non-ferrous metals. If you are fabricating aluminum tanks, repairing boat hulls, or customizing automotive parts, this SL-4 Cone shape burr is the tool you need in your die grinder to keep the work moving.

The secret lies in the aggressive, open flute design. Instead of small chips getting trapped, this burr shears off long chips of aluminum and ejects them immediately. This means you can grind faster, cooler, and with significantly less pressure. The SL-4 Cone shape (1/2" x 1-1/8") is particularly useful for welders because it allows you to grind out fillet welds, bevel edges for penetration, or smooth out tight corners where a flat disc simply cannot reach. The 1/4" shank fits your standard die grinder collet securely.

Walter is known for making abrasives that last, and this carbide burr is no exception. It runs true without the wobble that cheaper bits often have, which saves your bearings and your hands from excessive vibration. Whether you are deburring a cut edge, enlarging a hole, or blending a weld seam on aluminum or copper, this tool provides the control and bite you need to get a professional finish.

Applications in the Shop

  • Aluminum Fabrication: Ideal for prepping joints and cleaning up welds on aluminum structures.
  • Automotive Porting: Excellent for shaping intake manifolds and cylinder heads made of soft alloys.
  • Maintenance & Repair: Quickly removes material on non-ferrous castings and parts without loading up.

FAQ

The SL-4 is a Cone shape with a radius end (often called a Ball Nosed Cone). It measures 1/2 inch in diameter and 1-1/8 inches in length of cut.

Non-ferrous burrs have wider flute spacing and a specific angle designed to evacuate large, soft chips (like aluminum) to prevent the tool from clogging or 'loading up'.

It is not recommended. The aggressive tooth angle designed for soft metals may chip or dull prematurely if used on hard ferrous metals like steel. Use a Double Cut burr for steel.

You need a die grinder (pneumatic or electric) equipped with a 1/4-inch collet.

Walter burrs are manufactured for perfect concentricity, which significantly reduces vibration compared to lower-quality alternatives, provided your tool's collet is in good condition.

While the non-ferrous geometry is designed to run dry without clogging, using a cutting lubricant or wax can further extend tool life and improve the surface finish on very soft or gummy aluminum alloys.

This burr has a standard 1/4" hardened steel shank.
