Walter Inox+ 1/2" x 24" 36 Grit File Belt for Stainless Steel

Cool Cutting Belts for Tough Weld Removal

When you are working in tight corners or prepping a stainless steel weld, you need an abrasive that cuts fast and stays cool. The Walter 1/2" x 24" Inox+ File Belt (36 Grit) is built exactly for that purpose. Designed to fit standard portable file sanders, this belt allows welders and fabricators to reach into narrow spaces and grind down welds, deburr edges, or blend surfaces without the frustration of belts snapping or burning the metal.

Stainless steel is notorious for holding heat, which can cause "heat tint" or blue discoloration that is a pain to remove. Walter's Inox+ technology solves this by using special fillers in the belt that lubricate the cut and dissipate heat. This means you can grind aggressively with the coarse 36 grit to remove material quickly, but still leave a clean surface that doesn't require excessive rework to fix heat damage. It’s a huge time-saver for anyone fabricating railings, tanks, or custom automotive parts.

The build quality of the belt itself is top-tier. It uses a heavy-duty Y-polyester cloth backing that won't stretch out halfway through the job. The joint where the belt ends meet is a smooth butt-joint, not an overlapping lap joint. This means the belt runs smoothly over the contact wheel without that annoying thumping vibration, giving you better control and a more consistent finish. Whether you are grinding down a TIG weld in a corner or deburring a laser-cut edge, this Walter belt is a reliable workhorse for your shop.
