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.
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.
