OVERVIEW

High-Performance Drilling for Tough Industrial Materials

The Walter 05F220 20mm x 55mm Carbide Core Cut Annular Cutter represents the pinnacle of hole-making technology for the MRO and heavy fabrication sectors. Engineered specifically to address the challenges of drilling hard, abrasive, and uneven materials, this cutter utilizes premium tungsten carbide inserts that far outperform traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) alternatives. In industrial environments where downtime equates to lost revenue, the longevity and reliability of the Carbide Core Cut series provide a tangible return on investment by significantly reducing tool changeovers and increasing throughput.

This specific unit features a 20mm diameter and an extended 55mm depth of cut, making it versatile for a wide range of structural and piping applications. The body of the cutter is designed with a specialized flute geometry that promotes rapid chip evacuation. This is critical when drilling deep holes in materials like stainless steel, where heat buildup and chip packing can lead to premature tool failure. By effectively clearing debris and maintaining cooler cutting temperatures, the Walter 05F220 ensures consistent precision and finish quality throughout its lifespan.

Furthermore, the design of the Carbide Core Cut series allows for higher feed rates and rotational speeds. This efficiency is achieved without requiring excessive physical force from the operator or the magnetic drilling unit. The result is a drilling process that is not only faster but also puts less strain on capital equipment. Whether utilized in a controlled workshop environment or on a rugged job site, this cutter delivers the aggressive performance needed to penetrate cast iron, complex alloys, and high-tensile steels with ease.

For procurement specialists and facility managers, choosing the Walter 05F220 means selecting a tool that guarantees performance consistency. It eliminates the unpredictability often associated with drilling exotic metals, ensuring that maintenance and fabrication schedules are met without interruption. Compatible with standard magnetic drilling machines, this annular cutter is an essential addition to any industrial tooling inventory focused on efficiency and precision.

FAQ

Carbide is significantly harder and more heat-resistant than High-Speed Steel (HSS). This allows it to cut through tougher materials like stainless steel and cast iron without dulling quickly, and it permits faster cutting speeds.

No, annular cutters like the Walter 05F220 are designed for use with magnetic drilling units or drill presses that have the appropriate arbor (usually Weldon shank) and stability.

Yes, using a high-quality cutting lubricant or coolant is highly recommended. It extends the life of the carbide tips, improves the surface finish of the hole, and helps evacuate chips.

This specific model (05F220) has a cutting depth capacity of 55mm (approximately 2.16 inches).

Yes, it can drill aluminum effectively. However, because aluminum is soft and gummy, it is crucial to use appropriate lubrication to prevent chips from welding to the cutter.

Walter Carbide Core Cut cutters typically feature a standard Weldon shank, making them compatible with most industrial magnetic drills.

Yes, the robust design of the carbide tips and the body allows for drilling into curved or uneven surfaces, such as pipes, more effectively than standard twist drills.

An annular cutter only cuts the periphery of the hole, leaving a solid slug in the center. This requires less energy and time compared to a twist drill, which must turn all the material in the hole into chips.
