05H010 - Walter 5/8-Inch x 1-Inch Carbide Tipped Annular Cutter with Universal Shank

High-Performance Drilling for Hardened Metals

The Walter 05H010 Carbide Core Cut Annular Cutter represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for industrial applications involving hard and abrasive materials. Designed by Walter Surface Technologies, this 5/8-inch diameter cutter features a 1-inch depth of cut and is engineered to outperform and outlast traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters. The secret lies in its premium carbide inserts, which are specifically formulated to withstand the intense heat and friction generated when drilling through tough substrates such as stainless steel, cast iron, and high-tensile alloys.

Industrial fabricators and MRO professionals rely on the Carbide Core Cut series for its ability to maintain cutting edge integrity even under aggressive feed rates. Unlike standard bits that may wander or dull quickly on uneven surfaces, this cutter's robust body design and precision-ground geometry ensure stable, accurate hole creation every time. The specialized flute design plays a critical role in this performance, rapidly evacuating chips to prevent clogging and heat buildup, which are common causes of premature tool failure.

Versatility is a key component of the 05H010's design. It features a Universal Shank, making it compatible with a wide array of magnetic drilling units available on the market today. This eliminates the need for specialized adapters in many cases, allowing for seamless integration into your existing tool lineup. Whether you are working on structural steel erection, heavy equipment repair, or custom fabrication of exotic alloys, this cutter delivers the speed, precision, and durability required for professional results.

Key Technical Benefits

• Extended Tool Life: Carbide tips resist wear significantly better than HSS, reducing downtime for tool changes.
• High-Speed Capability: Engineered to operate at higher RPMs and feed rates, improving overall shop productivity.
• Material Versatility: Excellent performance on stainless steel, varying grades of cast iron, and abrasive composites.
• Precision Cutting: Produces clean, burr-free holes that often require no secondary finishing operations.
