05D400 - Walter 1-Inch x 2-Inch Carbide Tipped Annular Cutter

High-Performance Drilling for Tough Materials

The Walter Carbide Core Cut Annular Cutter (1" x 2") represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for heavy-duty industrial applications. Designed specifically to tackle the hardest and most abrasive materials, this cutter (SKU: 05D400) is an essential tool for fabricators working with stainless steel, cast iron, and high-tensile alloys. Unlike traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters that can struggle or dull quickly against hardened metals, Walter's carbide-tipped design maintains its cutting edge longer, ensuring consistent precision and efficiency.

Advanced Carbide Technology

At the heart of this tool are top-quality, extra-hard carbide inserts. These tips are engineered to withstand the intense heat and friction generated when drilling large-diameter holes. This allows operators to run their magnetic drilling units at higher speeds and feed rates, significantly reducing cycle times. Whether you are drilling on-site structural steel or working on large workpieces in the shop, the 05D400 delivers clean, burr-free holes with minimal effort.

Optimized Flute Design

Walter has integrated a specialized flute and body design into the Core Cut series. This geometry is critical for effective chip evacuation, especially when drilling deep holes up to 2 inches. By clearing debris efficiently, the cutter reduces heat buildup and prevents binding, which is a common cause of tool failure. The result is a smoother drilling action that requires less physical pressure from the operator, reducing fatigue during extended use.

Versatility in Application

This 1-inch diameter cutter is not just for flat plates. Its robust construction makes it ideal for working on curved surfaces, uneven materials, and even overlapping plates. It excels in applications involving railway steel, heavy equipment repair, and infrastructure projects where material hardness varies. By choosing the Walter Carbide Core Cut, you are investing in a tool that guarantees the highest quality performance and a lower cost per hole over its lifespan.
