Walter ALU Grinding Wheel 6" x 1/4" x 7/8" Type 27 A-24-ALU

Grind Aluminum Without the Headache

If you have ever tried to grind aluminum with a standard rock wheel, you know the struggle. Within seconds, the wheel gets gummed up with silver sludge, stops cutting, and starts generating excessive heat. You end up fighting the grinder rather than doing the work. The Walter ALU™ 6-inch grinding wheel (08L600) is the solution to that frustration. It is built specifically to eat through aluminum and non-ferrous metals without clogging up.

Ready to Weld Immediately
One of the biggest hassles with aluminum fabrication is prep work. Many "aluminum-specific" wheels use waxes or lubricants to keep the wheel cool, but that residue gets embedded in your workpiece. If you weld over it, you get porosity and failed welds. The Walter ALU™ wheel is completely free of waxes and lubricants. It cuts clean and leaves a surface that is ready for the torch immediately—no wiping down with acetone or wire brushing required.

Built for Performance
This wheel doesn't just resist clogging; it removes material fast. Whether you are beveling plate for a butt weld, grinding down a heavy bead, or deburring cut edges, the 08L600 keeps cutting aggressively until the wheel is worn down. It fits your standard 6-inch grinder and is tough enough to handle the daily abuse of a fab shop. Stop wasting time changing clogged wheels and start getting the job done faster.
