OVERVIEW

High-Performance Mounted Wire Brush for Die Grinders

Achieve superior surface finishes and effective cleaning with the Walter 2-Inch Mounted Stainless Steel Wire Brush (SKU: 13C275). Designed for industrial environments, this brush combines durability with the precision needed for detailed work. It is specifically manufactured with high-grade stainless steel wires, making it the safe choice for use on stainless steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals where carbon contamination must be avoided.

Superior Balance and Safety

Safety and comfort are paramount when using high-speed rotary tools. Walter mounted brushes are individually balanced to ensure concentricity. This attention to detail eliminates the wobble and vibration often found in lower-quality brushes. The result is a smoother operation that allows for greater control, ensuring that you can clean tight corners and complex geometries with confidence. The 1/4-inch shank is securely attached, providing a safe and reliable connection to your die grinder or drill.

Versatile Applications

This crimped wire brush is versatile enough to handle a wide range of tasks. It is excellent for removing paint, rust, scale, and oxidation from metal surfaces. In welding applications, it is frequently used for inter-pass cleaning and for removing the heat-tint discoloration that occurs after welding stainless steel. Its 2-inch size allows it to access areas that larger angle grinder brushes cannot reach, such as the interior of small pipes, channels, and recessed areas on machinery.

Long-Lasting Durability

Walter's wire brushes are built to last. The high-density wire fill ensures that there are plenty of cutting tips in contact with the work surface, increasing cleaning efficiency and extending the lifespan of the brush. By maintaining the correct pressure and letting the wire tips do the work, users can maximize the utility of this tool, making it a cost-effective solution for busy fabrication shops and maintenance departments.

FAQ

Using a carbon steel brush on stainless steel can embed iron particles into the surface, which will cause the stainless steel to rust (after-rust). A stainless steel brush prevents this cross-contamination.

This brush has a 1/4-inch shaft (shank), making it compatible with most die grinders, electric power drills, and pneumatic rotary tools that have a 1/4-inch collet or chuck.

The maximum safe operating speed is typically around 20,000 RPM for this 2-inch brush. Always verify the RPM rating marked on the product or packaging before use.

Yes, stainless steel brushes are excellent for cleaning aluminum as they do not leave behind carbon deposits and resist clogging better than some other materials.

Crimped wire is flexible and ideal for light cleaning, surface finishing, and working on uneven surfaces. Knotted wire is stiffer and more aggressive, used for heavy rust removal and aggressive cleaning.

Yes, absolutely. Wire filaments can break off during use. Always wear ANSI-approved safety glasses or a face shield, along with protective gloves and clothing.

Avoid applying excessive pressure. Let the tips of the wire do the cutting. Pushing too hard bends the wires, causing fatigue and premature breakage.
