05D505 - Walter 2-5/16 Inch Carbide Tipped Annular Cutter 2 Inch Depth

High-Performance Carbide Drilling for Hardened Alloys

The Walter 05D505 Carbide Core Cut is a specialized annular cutter engineered for the most demanding industrial drilling applications. Designed with a substantial 2-5/16 inch diameter and a 2-inch cutting depth, this tool represents the pinnacle of hole-making technology for magnetic drilling units. Unlike traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters, the Core Cut series utilizes premium tungsten carbide inserts. These inserts are brazed onto a specialized alloy body, providing the extreme hardness required to machine tough materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, and abrasive composites without premature wear or failure.

Technically, the cutter features an exclusive flute geometry that is critical for deep hole drilling. The design optimizes chip flow, rapidly evacuating swarf from the cutting zone to prevent heat buildup and binding. This thermal management is essential when working with work-hardening materials like stainless steel, ensuring that the material properties remain stable and the cutter life is maximized. The body of the cutter is designed to withstand the high torque loads associated with large diameter drilling, transferring power efficiently from the magnetic drill motor to the workpiece.

The 05D505 is particularly effective on uneven or rough surfaces. Standard twist drills often wander when encountering rust, scale, or curved surfaces, but the Core Cut's multiple cutting teeth and pilot pin system ensure precise centering and stability from the moment of contact. This stability reduces the mechanical stress on the drilling unit's motor and gearbox, potentially extending the service life of your capital equipment. For MRO operations and fabrication shops dealing with exotic alloys or heavy structural components, this carbide cutter offers a reliable, high-precision solution that reduces cycle times and tooling costs.
