Abrasives · Power Tools · Finishing

The abrasive is only half of it. The tool is the other half.

A premium disc on an underpowered grinder finishes slower than a cheap disc on the right one. Walter builds both ends of that pairing, so the wheel, the speed and the tool are matched by design rather than by whatever was in the crib. We stock the pairing, not just the consumable.

Cutting & grindingWalter angle grinders for cutting and grinding, 4.5 inch through 7 inch
Angle grinders & cut-off
Corded grinders built for continuous industrial duty, paired with ZIP cut-off wheels and XCAVATOR grinding wheels. The tool holds speed under load, which is where the wheel actually earns its life.

Finishing & surface conditioning
Variable-speed straight and angle finishers for flap wheels, drums and non-woven media — blending, graining and satin finishing on stainless and aluminium where the finish has to match across the whole part.

Power tools · brushless
Brushless, and the difference shows up in the duty cycle

A brushless motor puts more of the draw into the wheel instead of into heat and brush wear — so the grinder holds speed deeper into the cut, runs cooler on long duty, and there are no brushes to change. On a tool that runs all shift, that is maintenance you stop scheduling.

Where this connects
Grinding is where the hours hide

Every weld gets ground. Every edge gets blended. It is the least measured operation in most shops and often the most labour. Two ways to take time out of it: match the tool to the abrasive so each disc lasts, or take the operation off the operator entirely.

Mirka — coated abrasives & sanding
Discs, belts, sheets and net abrasives with dust-free sanders and polishers — the fine end of the range, where finish quality and dust extraction matter more than stock removal.

Or take the operator out of it
Mirka’s automated finishing puts abrasive, pressure and dust extraction under program control, so the finish repeats part to part instead of varying by whoever is holding the tool. See it running on our automated finishing page.
