OVERVIEW

Heavy-Duty Drilling for Hard Metals

The Walter 2-3/4" x 2" Carbide Core Cut (SKU: 05D512) is an industrial-grade annular cutter engineered to tackle the toughest drilling challenges in the metalworking industry. Unlike standard High-Speed Steel (HSS) bits that can dull quickly on abrasive materials, this cutter features premium tungsten carbide inserts. These inserts are specifically formulated to cut through hard alloys, stainless steel, and cast iron with exceptional efficiency and durability.

Designed for professional fabrication environments, the Carbide Core Cut series allows operators to run magnetic drilling units at higher speeds and feed rates. This translates to reduced cycle times and increased productivity on the shop floor or job site. The cutter's specialized body and flute design promote rapid chip ejection, preventing heat buildup and binding even in deep 2-inch holes. Whether you are drilling into uneven surfaces, thick structural steel, or wear-resistant plates, this tool delivers clean, burr-free holes with precision.

Reliability is key in heavy industry, and Walter's manufacturing standards ensure that every 05D512 cutter performs consistently throughout its long lifespan. It is the ideal choice for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) professionals who require tools that can withstand the rigors of drilling resilient metals without frequent replacement.

Key Applications

  • Drilling large diameter holes in stainless steel and cast iron.
  • Heavy fabrication involving hard alloys and abrasive materials.
  • On-site construction and structural steel modification.
  • Applications requiring high-speed drilling with magnetic drills.

FAQ

It is designed for tough materials including stainless steel, cast iron, hard alloys, aluminum, and carbon steel.

This specific cutter has a cutting depth of 2 inches.

Yes, a pilot pin is recommended to center the cut and eject the slug after drilling is complete.

No, annular cutters like this are designed for use with magnetic drilling units or stationary drill presses with the appropriate arbor.

While carbide cutters are extremely durable, they are generally more difficult to resharpen than HSS cutters. It is often more cost-effective to replace them once the carbide inserts are worn.

Carbide handles heat better and is harder, making it essential for drilling large 2-3/4" holes in hard materials like stainless steel without dulling immediately.

It typically features a standard Weldon shank compatible with most magnetic drills.

Yes, using a high-quality cutting lubricant or coolant is highly recommended to extend tool life and ensure a clean cut, especially in stainless steel.
