Walter Inox Plus File Belt - 3/4 Inch x 24 Inch - 36 Grit

Heavy-Duty Weld Removal in Tight Spaces

For professional welders, accessing tight corners and intricate geometries to clean up welds can be a major frustration. The Walter 14B123 Inox Plus File Belt (3/4" x 24", 36 Grit) is built to solve this problem. This aggressive abrasive belt turns your portable file sander into a precision weld-removal tool, allowing you to grind down heavy beads and level surfaces in areas where a standard angle grinder simply cannot fit. With its coarse 36 grit, it bites into the metal immediately, saving you time on every job.

Cool Cutting Technology

Working with stainless steel requires abrasives that don't generate excessive heat. Overheating the base metal can lead to heat tinting (discoloration) and can even alter the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel, leading to rework or passivation issues later. The Inox Plus series features built-in lubricating additives that keep the cutting zone cool. This means you can grind aggressively without burning the material, preserving the integrity of your stainless steel projects. It is also highly effective on aluminum, as the cool cutting action helps prevent the soft metal from melting and loading up the belt.

Built Tough for Industrial Use

File belts take a beating. They are run under high tension and often twisted or pushed into sharp corners. Cheap belts snap or stretch, causing downtime and frustration. Walter has equipped the 14B123 with a rugged Y-polyester backing that stands up to the abuse of daily industrial use. The splice is a critical weak point in many belts, but Walter uses a reinforced butt-joint that is as strong as the belt itself. This ensures the belt won't fly apart when you are leaning into a heavy grind.
