OVERVIEW

Heavy-Duty Finishing for Tight Spaces

When your fabrication or repair job requires getting into hard-to-reach areas, the Walter B-52 Mounted Point (SKU: 12D242) is the tool of choice for professional welders and fabricators. This abrasive point is built to withstand the rigors of industrial environments while providing the finesse needed for detailed finishing work. Optimized for use on mild steel and similar ferrous metals, it offers a reliable solution for cleaning up welds, prepping surfaces, and correcting metal imperfections without the hassle of constant tool changes.

Vibration is the enemy of precision and tool life. Walter Surface Technologies has addressed this by ensuring that the 12D242 is perfectly balanced. A balanced point means your die grinder runs smoother, your cuts are more precise, and you don't walk away with numb hands after a shift of grinding. The vitrified bond holds the abrasive grains securely, allowing them to fracture and self-sharpen as they work, maintaining a high cut rate throughout the life of the product. This efficiency translates to less downtime and more parts finished per hour.

The B-52 shape (typically 3/8" diameter by 3/4" length) is versatile enough for a wide range of tasks. It fits easily into corners where a flap disc or grinding wheel would be too bulky. Whether you are smoothing out a jagged edge on a piece of cast iron or fine-tuning a fitting on a custom steel assembly, this mounted point delivers the control you need. It is compatible with standard die grinders featuring a 1/8" collet, making it a universal addition to any grinder's toolkit.

Why Choose Walter Mounted Points?

  • Vibration-Free: Protects your tools and improves finish quality.
  • Long Life: Premium bonding resists premature wear.
  • Versatility: Effective on a wide range of steels and irons.
