OVERVIEW

Cut Titanium Without the Heat

If you have ever tried cutting titanium or heavy brass with a standard zip wheel, you know the struggle: the wheel gums up, the metal gets scorching hot, and you end up fighting the grinder rather than making a clean cut. The Walter ZIP TiTAN™ 5" cut-off wheel (11H052) changes the game. It is built specifically for those tough, gummy metals that usually eat up ordinary abrasives. Whether you are fabricating custom exhaust parts, working on marine brass fittings, or handling aerospace alloys, this wheel gives you the control and performance you need.

The secret lies in the wheel's ability to cut without generating excessive friction. Titanium is notorious for holding onto heat, which can ruin the temper of the metal and make your job harder. The ZIP TiTAN™ slices through cleanly and coolly, leaving a smooth finish that often requires little to no deburring. This means you spend less time grinding down messy edges and more time welding or fitting. The 5-inch diameter gives you that extra reach and capacity compared to smaller wheels, while the ultra-thin .045" profile ensures you aren't wasting valuable material.

Safety and comfort are also key. Because the wheel cuts so efficiently, you don't have to lean hard on the grinder. This reduces vibration and strain on your wrists during long days in the shop. The Type 1 flat shape is perfect for making straight, precise cuts through tubing or sheet metal. Upgrade your abrasive arsenal with the ZIP TiTAN™ and experience the difference a purpose-built tool makes on exotic metals.

Why Welders Choose ZIP TiTAN™

  • Cooler Cuts: Keeps your workpiece from overheating and warping.
  • Cleaner Edges: Less burr means less cleanup work after the cut.
  • Longer Life: Get more cuts per wheel, saving you money in the long run.

FAQ

The ZIP TiTAN is specially formulated with abrasive grains and bonding agents designed to cut titanium and brass without loading (clogging) or generating excessive heat, which is a common issue with standard wheels on these metals.

While it can physically cut stainless steel, it is optimized for titanium and brass. For stainless steel, we recommend using the standard ZIP or ZIP Stainless wheels for the best performance and cost-efficiency.

A Type 1 (flat) wheel is ideal for cutting applications as it allows for deep, perpendicular cuts into the material without the interference of a depressed center hub.

Titanium has poor thermal conductivity, meaning heat stays concentrated at the cut zone. Excessive heat can cause the metal to work-harden, making it brittle and difficult to weld or machine later. The ZIP TiTAN cuts cool to prevent this.

The 11H052 has a standard 7/8" arbor, making it compatible with most professional 5-inch angle grinders.

Yes, the ZIP TiTAN is excellent for cutting bronze and other copper-based alloys, providing clean cuts without gumming up the wheel.

The maximum RPM is typically rated at 12,200 for Walter 5" cut-off wheels, but always verify with the label on the actual product before use.

Yes. In addition to standard PPE (eye, face, hand protection), be aware that titanium sparks are very hot and bright white. Ensure your work area is free of flammable materials.
