05H108 - Walter 1-1/2 Inch Carbide Annular Cutter 1 Inch Depth Universal Shank

High-Performance Carbide Drilling Solution

The Walter 05H108 Carbide Core Cut annular cutter represents the pinnacle of hole-making technology for heavy-duty industrial applications. Engineered with premium tungsten carbide tips, this 1-1/2" diameter cutter is specifically formulated to overcome the limitations of traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters when facing hard, abrasive, or uneven materials. The cutter features a 1" depth of cut, making it a versatile tool for standard plate drilling operations across manufacturing, construction, and maintenance sectors.

At the heart of the 05H108's performance is its advanced flute and body design. The specialized geometry ensures rapid chip evacuation, which is critical when drilling at the higher speeds and feed rates that carbide allows. This efficient heat dissipation prevents work hardening of the material, particularly important when working with stainless steel and other heat-sensitive alloys. The carbide inserts are brazed with precision to withstand the mechanical shock of drilling through uneven surfaces or overlapping holes, providing a level of durability that ensures consistent tolerance and finish quality over the tool's lifespan.

Integration into existing tooling systems is seamless thanks to the Universal Shank design. This feature allows the 05H108 to be compatible with a wide array of magnetic drilling units, including those utilizing Weldon or Nitto style chucks. By eliminating the need for specialized arbors or adapters, Walter enables machine shops and field technicians to upgrade their drilling capabilities instantly. Whether the application involves structural steel, cast iron components, or exotic alloys, this carbide annular cutter delivers precise, burr-free holes with minimal effort.

Technical specifications include a 1-1/2 inch cutting diameter and a 1 inch maximum cutting depth. The tool is optimized for use on magnetic drilling units where rigidity and torque can be leveraged to maximize the carbide's cutting potential. It is an essential component for MRO operations requiring reliable performance on tough materials like rail steel and Hardox plates.
