Walter Surface Technologies has launched a new cordless cutter. The ZIPCUTTER is a powerful tool and is uniquely able to use a 6” cutting wheel.

The ZIPCUTTER is specifically designed for metal workers who are consistently on-location without access to a power supply.

Utilizing the latest battery technology, the ZIPCUTTER  features an exclusive Ventilated Charging System. The system comprises of an 18V/5.2Ah battery allowing workers to perform more cuts between charges. In addition, the ventilated charging station quickly charges the battery while also extending its life by keeping it cool during the charging process.

This new product offers the latest in Walter Surface technologies including DYNAMAX electronics for RPM control and consistent speed under load, bevelled gears to reduce noise, and a front retaining plate and rear bushing to prevent misalignment and reduce vibration.

We’ve incorporated the latest technology to engineer the ZIPCUTTER and produce this one of a kind heavy-duty and lightweight cordless cutter, said Stephane Drainville, Product Manager at Walter Surface Technologies. This one tool will reduce downtime by allowing users to make more cuts between recharges. And with the Ventilated Charging System, battery-life is extended too. All of which leads to reduced production costs. Furthermore, with the ability to use a 6” cutting wheel on a cordless cutter, it will easily increase performance and production rate. It is the ultimate tool for on-location workers.

The ZIPCUTTER is designed to be used with Walter’s high performance ZIP family of cutting wheels. By combining both products together, users have the perfect cutting technology in hand.

The ZIPCUTTER cordless cutter is available in 4½ / 5” and 6” diameters.

With a 270o rotating battery pack and countless other exclusive features, the ZIPCUTTER gets an extensive number of cuts per charge.

Launched in  January 2015, this product comes with an exclusive starter kit for a limited-time.
