OVERVIEW

High-Performance Carbide Tooling for Industrial Fabrication

The Walter 05D925 Carbide Core Cut annular cutter represents the pinnacle of hole-making technology for heavy industrial applications. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern fabrication shops and large-scale construction projects, this 2-9/16" diameter cutter features a substantial 4" cutting depth, allowing for single-pass drilling through thick plate and structural members. Unlike traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters, the Carbide Core Cut series utilizes premium tungsten carbide tips that maintain their hardness at high temperatures, significantly extending tool life and enabling faster production cycles.

Engineered with a specialized body and flute design, this cutter excels in evacuating chips efficiently, a critical factor when drilling deep holes in gummy or abrasive materials. The geometry of the carbide inserts reduces the axial force required, minimizing machine wear and operator fatigue while ensuring consistent hole accuracy. This makes it the tool of choice for processing difficult materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, and various hard alloys where standard tooling often fails or dulls prematurely.

For procurement specialists and tool crib managers, the Walter 05D925 offers exceptional value through its durability. The ability to run at higher speeds and feeds translates to reduced cycle times and increased throughput. Furthermore, the precision ground cutting edges produce clean, burr-free holes that often eliminate the need for secondary reaming or deburring operations, streamlining the workflow. Whether utilized in a controlled workshop environment or on-site for structural repairs, this cutter delivers reliable, high-tolerance performance consistent with the Walter brand's reputation for quality.

Compatibility is key in industrial settings, and this cutter is designed to fit standard magnetic drilling units commonly found in MRO and fabrication sectors. Its robust construction ensures stability during the cut, reducing the risk of breakage even when encountering uneven surfaces or intermittent cuts. By investing in carbide technology, facilities can reduce downtime associated with tool changes and sharpening, ultimately lowering the cost per hole.

FAQ

It is designed for tough materials including stainless steel, cast iron, hard alloys, carbon steel, and composites.

Yes, a pilot pin is recommended to center the cutter and eject the slug after drilling. Ensure you select a pin that matches the 4-inch depth of this cutter.

While carbide tips are extremely durable, they can be resharpened by specialized services. However, due to the complexity of the carbide geometry, professional sharpening is required to maintain performance.

Carbide (TCT) is much harder and more heat-resistant than High-Speed Steel (HSS). This allows for faster drilling speeds and significantly longer tool life, especially in hard metals like stainless steel.

This annular cutter is designed for use with magnetic drilling units (mag drills) that can accept the shank size appropriate for a 2-9/16" cutter.

Yes, using a high-quality cutting lubricant or coolant is highly recommended to extend tool life, improve surface finish, and assist in chip evacuation.

This specific model has a cutting depth capacity of 4 inches.

The specialized flute design helps clear metal chips out of the deep hole efficiently, preventing clogging and heat buildup which could damage the cutter or the workpiece.
