OVERVIEW

Power and Comfort for the Professional Fabricator

When you are grinding welds for eight hours a day, your tool is your lifeline. The Walter Ironman™ Model 6560A is built for the welder who refuses to compromise on power or comfort. With a massive 1,750 watts of output, this grinder doesn't bog down when you lean into it. It eats through heavy weld seams, bevels thick plate, and cuts through structural steel with ease, allowing you to get the job done faster and move on to the next task.

One of the biggest enemies of a welder is fatigue, often caused by the constant vibration of power tools. Walter has addressed this with their exclusive Stabilizer™ technology inside the Ironman™. This system smooths out the wobble and shake that typically travels up your arms, reducing the risk of "white finger" and keeping your hands steady for precision work. Combined with the ergonomic rat-tail handle, which offers a secure and natural grip, this grinder is designed to be an extension of your arm, giving you superior control in overhead or awkward positions.

Flexibility is key in a busy shop. The Ironman™ 6560A is compatible with both 5" and 6" accessories, giving you the option to run larger wheels for deeper cuts and more surface contact. The extra inch on a 6" wheel can make a huge difference in reach and longevity. The tool also features a safety clutch to protect you from kickback if a wheel pinches, adding an extra layer of safety to its raw power. If you are looking for a grinder that works as hard as you do, the Walter Ironman™ is the tool to have in your gang box.
