05H240 - Walter 24mm Carbide Tipped Annular Cutter 55mm Depth

High-Performance Drilling with Walter Carbide Core Cut

The Walter 05H240 is a premium 24mm x 55mm Carbide Core Cut annular cutter designed for the most demanding industrial drilling applications. Unlike standard High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters, this tool utilizes high-grade carbide tips brazed onto a durable alloy body. This construction allows the cutter to withstand significantly higher temperatures and abrasion, making it the ideal choice for drilling through hard materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, and high-tensile alloys where HSS tools would fail or wear prematurely.

With a diameter of 24mm and a cutting depth of 55mm, this cutter is engineered for deep hole drilling in thick structural plates, pipe flanges, and heavy machinery components. The core drill design removes material only at the periphery of the hole, ejecting the center as a solid slug. This method requires less power and thrust compared to traditional twist drills, resulting in faster penetration rates and reduced wear on the magnetic drilling machine. The specialized geometry of the carbide teeth ensures efficient chip evacuation, preventing clogging and heat buildup even during deep drilling operations.

Precision is a hallmark of the Walter Core Cut series. The 05H240 produces accurate, burr-free holes that often require no secondary finishing operations like reaming or deburring. This efficiency translates to significant time savings in production environments. The cutter features a standard shank compatible with most magnetic drill presses available in the market. For optimal performance and longevity, it is highly recommended to use this cutter with appropriate cutting lubricants, such as Walter's COOLCUT or ICECUT fluids, to further reduce friction and thermal shock on the carbide tips.

Industrial maintenance and fabrication professionals rely on Walter's carbide technology for its consistency and durability. Whether used in field construction, shipyard maintenance, or fabrication shops, the 05H240 delivers reliable performance in tough conditions. Its ability to maintain a sharp cutting edge longer than conventional tools reduces downtime associated with tool changes, ensuring that projects remain on schedule and within budget.
