Walter 30-B-004 Safety Guard for 4.5 and 5 Inch Cup Wheels

Heavy-Duty Protection for Cup Wheel Grinding

When it comes to aggressive grinding with cup wheels, standard guards just don't cut it. The Walter Cup Wheel Guard (SKU: 30B004) is the professional's choice for upgrading their 4-1/2" or 5" Walter grinders to safely handle Type 11 cup wheels. Cup wheels sit higher on the spindle than standard depressed center wheels, rendering standard guards ineffective and dangerous. This deep-profile guard is designed to wrap around the cup wheel, providing maximum coverage and protection.

Grinding concrete, stone, or metal with a cup wheel generates a significant amount of particulate matter and sparks. This guard effectively channels this debris away from the welder or operator, improving visibility and reducing the risk of burns or eye injuries. Constructed from high-grade steel, the 30-B-004 is built to survive the knocks and drops of a busy welding shop. It resists deformation and maintains its shape even after years of daily use.

Compatibility is key for efficient workflow. This guard is specifically tailored for Walter angle grinders, ensuring a perfect fit without the need for makeshift modifications. A loose or ill-fitting guard can be just as dangerous as no guard at all; with the Walter 30-B-004, you get a secure lock that stays in place while you work. It allows for the full utility of the cup wheel, letting you grind flat surfaces and edges without the guard interfering with the workpiece.

Don't compromise on safety when switching between abrasive types. Keep this specialized guard in your tool crib to ensure you are always ready for cup wheel applications. It is an affordable investment in personal safety that prevents costly accidents. Equip your Walter grinders with the protection they were designed for and grind with confidence.
