OVERVIEW

High-Performance Cobalt Drilling Solution

The Walter 01A031 31/64" SST Jobber Drill Bit represents a significant advancement in drilling technology for industrial maintenance and fabrication. Engineered with a premium cobalt blend, this bit is designed to withstand high temperatures and abrasive materials, ensuring a longer service life compared to standard high-speed steel bits. The core of its performance lies in the robust fully-ground construction which guarantees concentricity and precision in every hole drilled.

One of the standout features of this model is the exclusive Quick Shank technology. Slippage within the drill chuck is a common issue that damages both the bit shank and the chuck jaws, leading to downtime and frustration. The Quick Shank design features flats that lock securely into both keyed and keyless chucks, transmitting torque more effectively and preventing the bit from spinning under load. This is particularly advantageous when working with tough materials where higher torque is required.

Efficiency is further enhanced by the self-centering Speed Tip. This specialized point geometry allows the bit to bite into the material immediately upon contact, eliminating the phenomenon of "walking" across the surface. This feature removes the necessity for pre-punching center marks, streamlining the workflow. Additionally, the bit features a bronze SST surface treatment which acts as a lubricant to reduce friction and heat buildup, and a back-tapered body to prevent binding. Optimized for cordless tools, it allows users to drill more holes per battery charge, making it an essential tool for mobile maintenance crews.

FAQ

The Quick Shank design features flats on the shank that allow the drill chuck to grip the bit securely, preventing it from spinning or slipping inside the chuck during high-torque applications.

While the cobalt blend offers excellent heat resistance suitable for many metals, this specific SST bit is optimized for mild steel, aluminum, and thin gauge metals. For dedicated stainless steel drilling, Walter offers specific high-performance lines, though this bit can handle occasional stainless work.

No, the Walter SST bit features a self-centering Speed Tip that prevents walking, allowing you to start drilling precisely without needing to center punch the material first.

Yes, the Walter SST drill bits are specifically engineered for cordless drills. Their efficient cutting geometry reduces power consumption, allowing you to drill more holes per battery charge.

This specific drill bit (SKU 01A031) has a diameter of 31/64 inches.

The bit features a bronze SST surface treatment which helps to reduce friction and heat buildup, facilitating smoother drilling and chip evacuation.

The back-tapered body design slightly reduces the diameter of the bit behind the cutting tip, which prevents the bit from binding or getting stuck in the hole, especially when drilling through multiple layers.

Yes, this is a Jobber length drill bit, which is the standard length suitable for a wide variety of general-purpose drilling applications.
