OVERVIEW

High-Performance Carbide Drilling Solution

The Walter 05D310 5/8" x 2" Carbide Core Cut annular cutter is a premium industrial tool engineered to overcome the limitations of traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters. Designed specifically for heavy-duty applications, this cutter features high-grade carbide inserts that provide exceptional hardness and heat resistance. This metallurgy makes it the ideal choice for drilling through challenging materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, tough alloys, and abrasive composites where standard bits often fail or degrade quickly.

One of the defining characteristics of the Carbide Core Cut series is its advanced flute and body design. The geometry is optimized to clear chips rapidly, preventing heat buildup and reducing the mechanical load on the magnetic drilling unit. This efficiency allows operators to utilize higher feed rates and rotational speeds, significantly improving productivity in high-volume fabrication environments. The precision-ground carbide teeth ensure that the cutter maintains its edge over a prolonged lifespan, reducing the frequency of tool changes and the associated downtime costs.

In addition to speed and longevity, the Walter 05D310 delivers superior hole quality. The cutting action is smooth and aggressive, producing accurate, burr-free holes that typically require no secondary finishing operations. This level of precision is critical in structural steel erection, heavy equipment manufacturing, and MRO applications where tolerance and fit are paramount. Whether working on flat plate or curved surfaces, this annular cutter provides the stability and bite necessary to penetrate hard materials effectively.

The 2-inch depth of cut offers versatility for drilling through thick plates, tubing, and structural members. Compatible with standard magnetic drilling units, the Walter Carbide Core Cut integrates seamlessly into existing workflows, providing an immediate upgrade in drilling capability. For industrial professionals seeking to maximize efficiency and minimize tooling costs per hole, this carbide-tipped cutter represents a superior investment in performance technology.

FAQ

The Walter Carbide Core Cut is specifically designed for hard and abrasive materials, including stainless steel, cast iron, tough alloys, and composites.

This specific model has a cutting depth of 2 inches, allowing it to drill through materials up to 2 inches thick.

No, annular cutters like this are designed for use with magnetic drilling units (mag drills) or drill presses with the appropriate arbor.

Yes, using a high-quality cutting lubricant or paste is highly recommended to extend the life of the cutter and ensure a smooth cut, especially on stainless steel.

Carbide cutters are much harder and more heat-resistant than High-Speed Steel (HSS). They last significantly longer and can cut at higher speeds, particularly in hard metals.

You will need a pilot pin that matches the 2-inch depth of cut and the internal diameter of the 5/8" cutter. Check the Walter catalog for the specific pin part number.

While carbide cutters can technically be resharpened by specialized services, it is often more difficult and costly than sharpening HSS. They are primarily designed for maximum longevity before replacement.

It likely will if your mag drill accepts a standard Weldon shank, which is the industry standard for these types of cutters.
