OVERVIEW

High-Performance Carbide Annular Cutter for Tough Alloys

The Walter 05D725 Carbide Core Cut is a premium 2-9/16" x 3" annular cutter engineered to tackle the most demanding drilling applications in the industrial sector. Unlike traditional High-Speed Steel (HSS) cutters, this tool utilizes extra-hard tungsten carbide tips, making it the ideal solution for machining abrasive and hard materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, and specialized structural alloys. The carbide composition ensures that the cutting edges maintain their sharpness even under high thermal stress, significantly extending the tool's operational life.

Designed for precision and efficiency, the 05D725 features a sophisticated flute and body geometry that optimizes chip removal. This is critical when drilling deep holes up to 3 inches, as it prevents clogging and reduces the mechanical load on the magnetic drilling unit. The cutter is capable of handling higher feed rates and speeds, translating to reduced cycle times and increased productivity on the shop floor. Its robust construction also allows for stable drilling on uneven or curved surfaces, a common challenge in structural steel fabrication and heavy equipment repair.

This cutter is compatible with standard magnetic drilling machines and is specifically formulated to bridge the gap between standard drilling and heavy-duty boring. Whether working with difficult composites or high-tensile steels, the Walter Carbide Core Cut delivers clean, burr-free holes with minimal effort. It represents a significant upgrade for professionals requiring reliability and precision in heavy metal fabrication.

FAQ

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

This specific cutter has a depth of cut of 3 inches.

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

Carbide is much harder and more heat-resistant than HSS, allowing it to cut through stainless steel without dulling quickly or work-hardening the material.

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

Yes, the body design and carbide tips make it suitable for drilling on challenging, uneven, or curved surfaces.

The diameter is 2-9/16 inches.

Yes, it is effective on aluminum, as well as copper and brass, providing clean cuts with high efficiency.
