For welders and metal fabricators, the final finish is often just as important as the weld itself. The Walter 15F313 Coolcut™ Flap Wheel (2" x 1", 80 Grit) is engineered to help you achieve that perfect satin finish with ease and efficiency. This mounted flap wheel is specifically designed to tackle the challenges of finishing irregular shapes, contours, and hard-to-reach areas where standard angle grinders are too bulky or aggressive. With its compact 2-inch diameter and 1-inch width, it fits easily inside tubing, channels, and tight corners, allowing you to blend welds and smooth out surfaces seamlessly.
The 80 grit abrasive grain offers a versatile medium-grade texture, perfect for the intermediate stages of finishing. It is aggressive enough to remove light scratches, oxidation, and small burrs, yet fine enough to leave a smooth, consistent scratch pattern that blends well with the surrounding material. This makes it an excellent choice for cleaning up after TIG welding on stainless steel or for prepping aluminum surfaces before anodizing or painting. The integrated 1/4"-20 threaded hub ensures a quick and solid connection to your tool, eliminating the slippage often associated with plain shank mounts.
Walter Surface Technologies is renowned for producing abrasives that work harder and last longer, and the Coolcut™ series is no exception. The high-quality abrasive cloth is arranged in tightly packed flaps that wear down evenly, exposing fresh grain continuously. This self-sharpening action maintains a consistent cut rate throughout the life of the wheel, so you don't have to push harder as the wheel wears. Furthermore, the "Coolcut" name refers to the wheel's ability to dissipate heat effectively. This is critical for welders working on thin-gauge stainless steel, where heat tinting can ruin the visual appeal of a project. By grinding cooler, you save time on post-weld cleanup and rework.
Whether you are restoring a vintage part, fabricating a custom exhaust, or performing general maintenance, the Walter 15F313 provides the control and finesse needed for professional results. Its flexibility allows it to conform to the workpiece, preventing gouging and ensuring a smooth transition between the worked area and the base metal. Add this high-performance flap wheel to your abrasive arsenal and experience the difference that premium engineering makes in your daily fabrication tasks.
