Walter Surface Technologies has introduced the XCAVATOR, their newest grinding wheel, designed for a range of industry such as metal fabrication shops, steel mills, mining, oil & gas, and shipbuilding.
The wheel has been tested on some of the world’s hardest resources, including tungsten carbide, tempered steel, Inconel, Hardox, and Boron steel.
Its aggressive, coarse front layer of Zirconium grain delivers very high removal rates. It also features an extra strong disc base/backing for more powerful and aggressive grinding action.
The wheel uses Walter's patented UHR multi-layer manufacturing technology to prevent edge flakiness – keeping the wheel edge symmetrically round for more safety and longer life.
