55B049 - Walter Maxi GT Wheel Bar Guide Assembly

Take the Strain Out of Surface Finishing

Finishing large sheets of stainless steel or aluminum can be exhausting work, and keeping your drum sander perfectly level is the key to a professional look. The Walter Wheel Bar Kit (55B049) for the Maxi GT is designed to make your life easier and your results better. Think of it as training wheels for your finishing tool—but for pros. This kit attaches to your Maxi GT and provides a sturdy set of wheels that rest on the material, taking the heavy lifting out of your hands.

Why use a wheel bar? Without one, it is easy to accidentally tilt the machine or press too hard in one spot, creating gouges or uneven grain lines that are a pain to fix. With this kit installed, the tool rolls smoothly along the length of the metal, keeping the abrasive drum perfectly parallel to the surface. This guarantees a uniform, streak-free finish every single time, whether you are brushing, graining, or polishing.

This accessory is perfect for fabricators who do a lot of architectural work, kitchen equipment manufacturing, or railing restoration. It sets up in minutes and is adjustable, so you can dial in exactly how much bite you want the drum to have. Stop fighting the weight of the tool and start getting consistent, high-quality finishes with less fatigue. Upgrade your Maxi GT with the genuine Walter Wheel Bar Kit today.
