Walter Surface Technologies, the global industry leader in surface treatment technologies, announced the release of its new Zip Titan™ and Chopcut Titan™ cutting discs, adding to their extensive line of world-class cutting abrasives.

The new Zip Titan™ and Chopcut Titan™ have been specifically designed for cutting titanium and brass with exceptional efficiency. “Both the Zip Titan™ and the Chopcut Titan™ were designed with a unique silicon-carbide based formulation to prevent the materials being cut from overheating,” says Marc Brunet-Gagné, Product Manager, Bonded Abrasives at Walter Surface Technologies. “Keeping the metal cooler helps preserve the mechanical properties and surface integrity of titanium and brass.”

The new Zip Titan™ and Chopcut Titan™ both boast a longer lifespan than other competing discs on the market. “The efficient cutting action of the wheel prevents it from overheating, which is the number one killer for cut-off wheels,” elaborates Brunet-Gagné. “You will also get more cuts per wheel, as well as faster and freer cuts, which helps increase job productivity and lower labor costs.”

The Zip Titan™ is part of Walter’s industry leading Zip™ Wheel family of products, which through testing and real-world documented cost savings, constantly shows longer life and the most cuts per wheel in the industry. The Chopcut Titan™ belongs to the Chopcut™ family of products, and is designed specifically for performance cutting on portable chop saws.
