05H012 - Walter 3/4-Inch x 1-Inch Carbide Core Cut Annular Cutter, Universal Shank

Premium Carbide Drilling Performance

The Walter 05H012 Carbide Core Cut Annular Cutter represents the pinnacle of hole-making technology for industrial applications. Designed with a 3/4-inch diameter and a 1-inch depth of cut, this tool is engineered to tackle the most demanding materials found in modern fabrication and maintenance environments. Unlike standard High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters, the Carbide Core Cut series utilizes top-quality, extra-hard carbide inserts. These inserts allow the cutter to penetrate tough metals such as stainless steel, cast iron, and various hard alloys with remarkable ease and precision.

One of the standout features of this cutter is its universal shank. This design ensures compatibility with a wide range of magnetic drilling units, making it a versatile addition to any tool crib. Whether your equipment utilizes a standard Weldon shank or other common mounting systems, the Walter 05H012 integrates seamlessly. The cutter's body is designed with an innovative flute geometry that promotes rapid chip evacuation. This is critical when drilling deep holes or working with materials that tend to work-harden, as efficient chip removal reduces heat buildup and extends the life of the tool.

For industrial supply managers and procurement specialists, the Walter Carbide Core Cut offers significant value through its longevity. The carbide tips maintain their cutting edge far longer than traditional materials, reducing the frequency of tool changes and downtime. This cutter is particularly effective for on-site work where reliability is paramount. It is robust enough to handle uneven surfaces and the vibration often associated with field machining, ensuring consistent, burr-free holes every time.

Technical Specifications

The 05H012 is optimized for high-speed drilling. Operators can run their magnetic drills at higher RPMs and feed rates, significantly reducing cycle times per hole. This efficiency does not come at the cost of quality; the cutter produces accurate, round holes with excellent surface finish, often eliminating the need for secondary reaming or deburring operations. It is the ideal choice for structural steel, rail, and heavy equipment repair where performance cannot be compromised.
