OVERVIEW

Tough Abrasives for the Toughest Steels

When you are staring down a piece of hardened steel or a rough casting that needs cleaning up in a tight spot, you can't afford to waste time with cheap grinding stones that crumble or bounce off the workpiece. You need the Walter W179 Mounted Point. This isn't your average hardware store grinding bit; it is a professional-grade abrasive tool designed specifically for "tough steel" applications. Whether you are working on tool steel, high-tensile alloys, or cast iron, this mounted point bites in and gets the job done. It is perfect for those awkward angles inside pipes, corners of frames, or when you need to enlarge a bolt hole just a hair to get a perfect fit.

We know that using a die grinder all day can leave your hands numb from vibration. That is why we recommend this Walter product. It is built with what they call "flawless balance." In the real world, that means the stone spins true without the wobble and chatter that shakes your hands and ruins your grinder's bearings. A smooth-running stone means you have better control over the cut, leading to a cleaner finish without gouges. You can grind longer with less fatigue, and your die grinder will thank you for it. The W179 shape is a classic for a reason—it fits where you need it and provides enough surface area to remove stock quickly without losing its shape immediately.

This mounted point is an essential addition to any fabricator's toolbox. It excels at fitting and enlarging, making it a lifesaver during assembly when parts don't quite line up. The high-quality abrasive grains are bonded to resist the heat and pressure generated when grinding hard metals, ensuring the stone lasts longer and cuts cooler. Don't settle for vibration and poor performance. Upgrade your abrasive game with the Walter W179 and experience the difference that a perfectly balanced, industrial-strength mounted point can make on your next project. It’s built for the grind, just like you.
