13B185 - Walter 8-Inch Stainless Steel Crimped Wire Bench Wheel

The Ultimate Upgrade for Your Bench Grinder

If you work with stainless steel, aluminum, or other non-ferrous metals, the Walter 8" Stainless Steel Wire Wheel (13B185) is an essential accessory for your shop. Standard carbon steel brushes should never touch your stainless steel projects; doing so embeds microscopic iron particles into the surface, which will eventually rust and ruin the finish you worked so hard to achieve. This Walter brush solves that problem with high-quality stainless wire designed specifically to keep your stainless parts clean and contaminant-free.

We know that bench grinders can be noisy and shaky beasts, often due to cheap, unbalanced wheels. Walter Surface Technologies manufactures these brushes to a higher standard of balance than generic alternatives. When you spin this wheel up to its 4,500 RPM limit, you'll notice the difference immediately—less wobble, less noise, and a smoother grinding experience. It’s perfect for cleaning up TIG welds, removing heat tint, stripping paint, or deburring cut edges before fitting.

Ready for Any Grinder

Don't worry about whether it will fit your machine. Whether you have an old industrial pedestal grinder with a 1-inch shaft or a standard 6-inch or 8-inch bench grinder with a 5/8-inch or 1/2-inch shaft, this wheel comes with everything you need. The included bushing set snaps easily into the center hole, providing a tight, safe fit on almost any standard arbor. Stop struggling with vibration and rust contamination—switch to a Walter stainless brush for a professional finish every time.
