Ultra High Removal Grinding Wheel



Walter Surface Technologies offers XCAVATOR high performance grinding wheels. "Designed for the toughest, most demanding grinding jobs for a range of industry metal fabrication shops such as metal fabrication, steel mills, mining, oil and gas and ship building, the XCAVATOR ultra high removal grinding wheel delivers heavy-duty performance and the highest level removal rate in the Walter range of grinding wheel products," said a company spokesperson.

"Tested on some of the world's hardest resources, including tungsten carbide, tempered steel, Inconel, Hardox and Boron steel, XCAVATOR's aggressive, coarse front layer of enriched Zirconium grain provides high removal rates," said the spokesperson. "XCAVATOR helps ensure optimal power transfer - from operator to working surface - for the toughest jobs.

"XCAVATOR features an extra strong disc base/backing for more powerful and aggressive grinding action. It also features Walter patented UHR multi-layer manufacturing technology to prevent edge flakiness - keeping the wheel edge symmetrically round for more safety and longer life.

"Created for use with powerful grinding machines, XCAVATOR removes over 30% more grams per minute compared to other ultra high removal wheels while at the same time absorbing vibrations, allowing this durable wheel to cost-effectively outlast all other grinding wheels in this category. Free of materials such as iron, sulfur and chlorine, XCAVATOR is virtually guaranteed not to contaminate surfaces such as stainless steel."

"Grinding represents a major part of shop costs and XCAVATOR helps save time, save money and is built to last," said Jean-Franois Dubois, Director of Marketing, Canada, Walter Surface Technologies.
