Walter ZIP 4-Inch Cut-Off Wheel 1/16 Thickness (Pack of 25)

Precision and Speed: Walter 11L415 ZIP™ Wheels

Equip your shop with the Walter 11L415 ZIP™ Cut-Off Wheel, a top-tier abrasive designed to deliver the fastest cuts in the industry. Sold in convenient packs of 25, these 4-inch wheels are an essential consumable for welders and fabricators working with die grinders. The ZIP™ series is legendary for its "cool cutting" technology, which is vital when working on heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel. By preventing heat buildup, these wheels ensure that the material's corrosion resistance is maintained and that no time is wasted cleaning up heat tint.

The 11L415 features a 1/16-inch thickness, which allows for rapid penetration into the base metal with minimal resistance. This specific dimension is ideal for cutting applications where precision is key. Unlike thicker grinding wheels, the ZIP™ wheel removes less material, which translates to faster cycle times and less dust and debris in the workshop. The 5/8-inch arbor fits standard mounting systems on compatible straight shaft tools, ensuring a secure and balanced fit for safe operation at high RPMs.

Durability is a hallmark of Walter Surface Technologies. These wheels are constructed with a heavily reinforced matrix that resists breakage and wear, providing excellent wheel life even under tough conditions. Whether you are notching structural steel or trimming stainless exhaust pipes, the ZIP™ wheel delivers consistent performance from the first cut to the last. For heavy grinding, a thicker 1/4" wheel is recommended, but for cutting and light notching, the 11L415 is the superior choice for efficiency and finish quality.

Why Choose Walter ZIP™?

Choosing Walter means choosing reliability. These wheels are free from iron, sulfur, and chlorine, making them guaranteed not to contaminate stainless steel. This purity is essential for nuclear, food grade, and pharmaceutical welding applications where cross-contamination cannot be tolerated.
