OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Performance for Hard Metals

The Walter 01A514 7/32" SST+ Drill Bit is a premium cutting tool designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial maintenance, repair, and fabrication environments. Engineered with a proprietary cobalt blend, this drill bit bridges the gap between standard high-speed steel and carbide, offering exceptional heat resistance and hardness. This composition is particularly vital when drilling high-tensile materials where friction heat can rapidly degrade the cutting edge of lesser tools.

One of the defining characteristics of the SST+ series is its robust geometry. The bit features a 135° split point, a standard in high-performance drilling, which allows the tool to bite into the material immediately upon contact. This self-centering capability eliminates the need for a center punch and prevents the bit from "walking" or skating across the workpiece, ensuring precise hole placement even on curved surfaces or pipes. The fully ground body construction ensures tight concentricity, resulting in accurate hole sizing and reduced vibration during operation.

Advanced Chip Evacuation Technology

Heat management is the enemy of drill bit longevity. Walter has addressed this with a "High Flow" flute design that optimizes the evacuation of chips from the hole. By clearing debris efficiently, the bit reduces friction and heat buildup, which preserves the temper of the cutting edge. Furthermore, the exclusive Bronze SST surface treatment acts as a lubricant and heat shield, further extending the tool's life under heavy load. Whether utilized in a stationary drill press or a portable hand drill, the 01A514 delivers consistent, reliable performance across a wide range of materials including mild steel, stainless steel, and non-ferrous alloys.

FAQ

The Walter SST+ 01A514 is designed to drill through a wide variety of materials including mild steel, stainless steel, and non-ferrous metals like aluminum.

No, the 135° split point design allows the bit to self-center immediately upon contact, eliminating the need for a center punch and preventing walking.

The Bronze SST treatment helps to reduce friction between the bit and the workpiece, which lowers heat generation and extends the life of the cutting edge.

Yes, the cobalt blend construction makes it highly heat-resistant and specifically optimized for drilling hard materials like stainless steel.

This drill bit features a standard round straight shank, making it compatible with standard 3-jaw chucks found on portable drills and drill presses.

The 'High Flow' flute design is engineered to evacuate chips faster than standard bits, preventing clogging and reducing heat buildup during deep drilling.

The diameter is 7/32 of an inch.

Cobalt blend High Speed Steel (HSS) retains its hardness at much higher temperatures than standard HSS, preventing the bit from dulling quickly when drilling tough metals.
