Walter Coolcut Cloth Shop Roll 2 Inch x 50 Yards 120 Grit

Versatile Surface Preparation for Welders

For welders and fabricators, surface preparation is the foundation of a quality weld. The Walter 14C312 Coolcut™ Shop Roll (120 Grit) provides a reliable and flexible solution for cleaning and finishing metals before and after welding. This 2-inch wide roll is perfectly sized for hand use, allowing welders to tear off exactly the length needed to wrap around pipes, tubes, or railings for efficient 360-degree cleaning.

The 120 grit aluminum oxide grain is aggressive enough to remove light oxidation, heat tint, and surface contaminants, yet fine enough to leave a smooth, polished finish. This makes it ideal for preparing base materials like steel, stainless steel, and aluminum for TIG or MIG welding. The premium cotton cloth backing offers superior durability compared to paper-backed abrasives, ensuring it won't shred or fall apart when used on rough edges or slag. Its flexibility allows it to contour perfectly to the workpiece, ensuring no spot is missed.

In addition to pre-weld cleaning, this shop roll is an essential tool for post-weld finishing. It can be used to blend minor imperfections, clean up heat-affected zones, and polish cylindrical stock. The Coolcut™ technology ensures the abrasive cuts freely without generating excessive heat, which is critical when working on stainless steel to maintain corrosion resistance. Keep a box of Walter 14C312 in your welding rig or shop for a versatile, go-to abrasive solution.
