OVERVIEW

Precision Engineering for Tough Materials

The Walter 05F230 30mm x 55mm Carbide Core Cut is a premium annular cutter engineered to tackle the most demanding industrial drilling applications. In the world of metal fabrication, efficiency is dictated by the ability to process materials quickly and accurately. Traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters often struggle with modern high-tensile alloys, stainless steel, and cast iron, leading to rapid dulling and frequent tool changes. Walter Surface Technologies has addressed this challenge by integrating high-grade carbide inserts into a robust body design, creating a cutter that excels where others fail.

This specific unit features a 30mm diameter and a substantial 55mm depth of cut, making it versatile for drilling through thick plates, structural beams, and heavy-walled pipe. The carbide tips are formulated to withstand extreme heat and abrasion, allowing operators to run their magnetic drilling units at higher RPMs and feed rates. This not only accelerates the production cycle but also ensures a cleaner cut with minimal burr formation, reducing the need for secondary deburring operations.

The geometry of the Walter Carbide Core Cut is equally impressive. The specialized flute design optimizes chip evacuation, preventing clogging and heat buildup inside the hole—a common cause of cutter failure in deep hole drilling. Whether you are drilling on flat plate, uneven surfaces, or curved pipes, the rigid body construction ensures concentricity and precision. For industrial MRO operations and heavy fabrication shops dealing with hard alloys, this cutter represents a strategic investment in productivity and tool longevity.

Technical Superiority

Walter's commitment to quality is evident in the manufacturing tolerances of the Core Cut series. The carbide inserts are brazed with precision to ensure uniform cutting load distribution, which minimizes vibration and chatter. This stability is crucial when drilling large diameter holes in hard materials, as it protects both the workpiece and the magnetic drill motor from excessive stress. By choosing the 05F230, you are equipping your facility with a tool designed to deliver consistent, high-performance results in the harshest machining environments.

FAQ

It is designed for tough materials including stainless steel, cast iron, hard alloys, carbon steel, and structural steel. It also works well on non-ferrous metals like aluminum, copper, and brass.

Carbide is significantly harder and more heat-resistant than High-Speed Steel (HSS). This allows for faster drilling speeds, higher feed rates, and a much longer tool life, especially when drilling hard materials like stainless steel.

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 flush chips from the cut.

Yes, the Walter Carbide Core Cut is designed to perform well on uneven and curved surfaces, such as pipes, where traditional twist drills might wander.

The 05F230 model has a cutting depth (length) of 55mm.

This annular cutter is designed for use with magnetic drilling units (mag drills) or stationary drill presses equipped with the appropriate arbor.

Yes, it is effective on aluminum and other non-ferrous alloys, provided appropriate lubrication is used to prevent chip welding.

Yes, like all annular cutters, it cuts only the perimeter of the hole and ejects a solid slug of material, which is more efficient than turning the entire hole volume into chips.
