05D506 - Walter 2-3/8 Inch Carbide Tipped Annular Cutter 2 Inch Depth

High-Performance Carbide Drilling for Tough Alloys

The Walter 2-3/8" x 2" Carbide Core Cut Annular Cutter (SKU: 05D506) represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for industrial applications involving hard and abrasive metals. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this cutter is specifically designed to overcome the limitations of traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) bits when facing materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, and resilient high-tensile alloys. By utilizing ultra-hard carbide inserts, this tool delivers exceptional longevity and maintains cutting edge sharpness far longer than standard alternatives.

Industrial fabrication often requires drilling large diameter holes in challenging environments. The Carbide Core Cut series addresses this by featuring a sophisticated flute and body design that optimizes chip removal. This prevents clogging and heat accumulation, which are common causes of premature tool failure. The result is a cutter that allows for faster feed rates and higher rotational speeds, significantly improving productivity on the shop floor or at the job site. Whether you are drilling into flat plates, pipes, or uneven surfaces, the robust construction of this cutter ensures precision and consistency.

For operations prioritizing cost-per-hole efficiency, the 05D506 is an ideal investment. Its ability to withstand the high thermal and mechanical stresses of drilling hard metals means fewer tool changes and less downtime. It is perfectly suited for use with magnetic drilling units, providing the stability and torque necessary to drive a 2-3/8 inch cutter through thick plate with ease.
