05F226 - Walter 26mm TCT Annular Cutter 55mm Depth

High-Performance Drilling with Walter Carbide Core Cut

The Walter 05F226 Carbide Core Cut Annular Cutter represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for industrial applications involving hard and abrasive materials. Designed with a 26mm diameter and a generous 55mm depth of cut, this tool is engineered to tackle the most demanding fabrication challenges. Unlike traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters, which may struggle or dull quickly when facing hardened alloys, this Tungsten Carbide Tipped (TCT) cutter maintains its cutting edge longer, ensuring consistent performance and reduced downtime.

Walter Surface Technologies has developed this series specifically for professionals who require efficiency and precision. The carbide inserts are brazed onto a specialized alloy body, allowing the cutter to withstand the high thermal stresses generated when drilling stainless steel, cast iron, and other tough metals. This construction not only extends the tool's lifespan but also allows for significantly higher speed and feed rates. For industrial MRO operations, this means faster hole production and lower cost per hole over the life of the tool.

The geometry of the 05F226 is another key feature. Its sophisticated flute design ensures rapid chip evacuation, preventing clogging and heat buildup that can lead to work hardening of the material. This is particularly critical when working with stainless steel. Whether you are drilling on a stationary press or using a portable magnetic drilling unit in the field, the Walter Carbide Core Cut delivers clean, burr-free holes with exceptional accuracy. It is the ideal choice for heavy machinery repair, structural steel fabrication, and any application where material hardness renders standard tooling ineffective.

Investing in Walter's Carbide Core Cut technology ensures that your workshop is equipped to handle modern, high-tensile materials. The 05F226 is not just a drill bit; it is a productivity solution that minimizes tool changes and maximizes throughput. Its robust design also makes it suitable for drilling uneven surfaces or overlapping holes, tasks that often cause standard bits to wander or break.
