The massive wildfire in Fort McMurray, Alberta is a catastrophic event, forcing the evacuation of 80,000 people in more than 12 communities. In Fort McMurray alone, 2,400 properties have been destroyed, which represents 10% of the buildings in the area. This is the largest fire-related e vacuation in Alberta history, and will likely be Canada’s largest disaster. The ZIP™ Wheel is the longest lasting cut-off wheel, boasting the lowest cost-per-cut compared to all other 3/64” thin cut-off wheels in the market. Save time working on your projects and save money as the ZIP™ Wheel gets the job done more efficiently, and lasts up to 20% longer than other wheels in this category. Premium cutting results can be achieved even in severe machining processes and high-pressure conditions. The CoolCut S-50™ provides extra lubricity in tougher applications such as hard-to-machine materials like high tensile steel and stainless steel, titanium and aluminum, or in higher-pressure machining processes (up to 80 bars of pressure). Walter’s redesigned line of corded grinders maximize productivity, and provide optimal power in every cutting, grinding, sanding and cleaning application. The redesigned grinders feature an ergonomic, anti-vibration side handle, a tool-free guard, and an exclusive safety clutch that neutralizes momentum and eliminates dangerous backlash. Walter recently announced the launch of the new Surfox™ Wand, compatible with the Surfox™ 304 MIG & TIG weld cleaning system. MAY 2016
