OVERVIEW

Premium Performance for Hard Metals

The Walter 01A503 3/64" SST+ Drill Bit represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for industrial applications. Designed specifically to address the challenges of drilling through tough materials, this tool utilizes a specialized cobalt blend that significantly enhances hardness and heat resistance compared to standard high-speed steel bits. This material composition allows the SST+ series to maintain a sharp cutting edge even when subjected to the high temperatures generated during continuous drilling in stainless steel and other ferrous metals.

Efficiency is at the core of the SST+ design. The bit features a unique "High flow" flute geometry that is engineered to evacuate chips rapidly from the hole. This efficient chip removal is critical for preventing heat buildup, which is the primary cause of premature bit failure. By keeping the cutting interface cooler, the drill bit can operate at higher speeds without compromising its structural integrity. The heavy-duty, fully ground body ensures precise concentricity, reducing wobble and ensuring that every hole is accurate to size.

Further enhancing its performance is Walter's exclusive bronze SST surface treatment. This coating not only provides an additional layer of protection against wear but also reduces friction between the bit and the workpiece. The result is a smoother drilling action that requires less feed pressure, reducing operator fatigue during manual drilling operations. Whether utilized in a portable hand drill or a stationary drill press, the Walter 01A503 delivers consistent, reliable performance that professionals can trust for their most demanding fabrication tasks.

FAQ

The Walter 01A503 is made from a specialized cobalt blend, which provides superior heat resistance and hardness compared to standard HSS bits.

Yes, the SST+ series is specifically engineered for drilling through stainless steel and other hard ferrous metals efficiently.

This specific drill bit has a diameter of 3/64 inches.

The bronze SST treatment reduces friction and heat buildup, allowing for smoother drilling and extending the overall life of the bit.

Absolutely, the Walter SST+ bits are designed for excellent performance in both portable hand drills and stationary drill presses.

The High flow flute design improves chip evacuation, which helps keep the bit cool and prevents clogging during deep drilling.

Yes, it is suitable for non-ferrous metals like aluminum, as well as mild steel and stainless steel.

Cobalt blend bits can withstand higher temperatures and are harder, making them much more durable when drilling tough materials that would quickly dull a standard bit.
