OVERVIEW

High-Performance Industrial Drilling Solution

The Walter 01B546 SST+ Jobber Drill is a premium cutting tool engineered for the most demanding industrial applications. Manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, this #46 wire gauge drill bit utilizes a proprietary cobalt blend that provides exceptional hardness and heat resistance. This material composition makes it the ideal choice for drilling through tough substrates, including stainless steel, mild steel, and non-ferrous metals, where standard high-speed steel bits often fail.

Efficiency is at the core of the SST+ design. The bit features a unique "High Flow" flute geometry and a tapered body that work together to evacuate chips rapidly from the hole. This efficient chip removal reduces friction and heat buildup, which are the primary causes of premature tool failure. Furthermore, the drill bit undergoes a specialized bronze SST surface treatment, adding another layer of protection against wear and corrosion, ensuring consistent performance over a longer service life.

Precision is guaranteed with Walter's exclusive "Speed Tip." This self-centering point geometry allows the operator to start drilling immediately without the need for center punching. It effectively prevents the bit from "walking" or skating across the workpiece, even when drilling on curved surfaces like pipes or round stock. Whether used in a stationary drill press or a portable hand drill, the Walter 01B546 delivers accurate, round holes with minimal burr formation, streamlining fabrication and maintenance workflows.

FAQ

The #46 wire gauge drill bit has a decimal equivalent diameter of 0.0810 inches.

Yes, the SST+ series is engineered with a cobalt blend specifically designed for drilling hard materials like stainless steel effectively.

In most cases, no. The exclusive Speed Tip is self-centering and prevents the bit from walking, eliminating the need for center punching.

The SST+ uses a cobalt blend for higher heat resistance, a special bronze surface treatment, and a high-flow flute design for better chip evacuation.

Yes, it works excellently on non-ferrous metals like aluminum, as the flute design helps clear soft chips quickly.

It allows for faster removal of debris and chips from the hole, which reduces heat buildup and extends the life of the drill bit.

Absolutely. The self-centering tip makes it ideal for portable drilling applications where stability can be a challenge.
