OVERVIEW

Precision Engineering for Industrial Drilling

The Walter #32 SST+ Jobber Drill Bit (01B532) represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for industrial maintenance and fabrication. Designed to address the common failure points of standard high-speed steel bits, the SST+ series incorporates a proprietary cobalt blend that significantly enhances the tool's red hardness. This metallurgical advantage allows the bit to maintain its cutting edge even under the extreme thermal loads generated when drilling high-tensile materials such as stainless steel and titanium alloys.

Beyond its material composition, the SST+ features advanced geometry engineered for productivity. The exclusive "Speed Tip" design is a self-centering point that engages the material immediately upon contact. This eliminates the phenomenon of "walking" or skating across the workpiece, thereby removing the necessity for pre-punching operations. This feature alone can drastically reduce cycle times in high-volume drilling applications.

Chip evacuation is critical for hole quality and tool longevity. Walter has integrated a "High Flow" flute design which rapidly channels swarf away from the cutting zone. Coupled with a back-tapered body, this design minimizes friction along the sidewalls of the hole, preventing binding and reducing the torque load on your drilling equipment. The special bronze SST surface treatment further enhances lubricity, ensuring that the 01B532 delivers consistent, precise performance hole after hole.

Technical Superiority

For professionals who demand reliability, the SST+ offers a robust solution. Whether utilized in stationary drill presses or portable hand drills, the structural integrity of the cobalt blend resists chipping and dulling. This drill bit is not merely a consumable; it is a performance upgrade for your entire drilling operation, ensuring that maintenance tasks and fabrication projects proceed without interruption caused by tool failure.

FAQ

A #32 wire gauge drill bit has a decimal equivalent of 0.1160 inches.

Yes, the Walter SST+ is specifically engineered with a cobalt blend to drill through tough materials like stainless steel effectively without overheating.

No, the SST+ features a self-centering 'Speed Tip' that prevents walking, allowing you to drill directly without a center punch.

The SST+ uses a cobalt blend for higher heat resistance and a unique flute geometry for better chip removal, whereas standard HSS bits lack these performance features.

Absolutely. The efficient cutting action of the Speed Tip and High Flow flutes reduces the power required, which can actually extend the battery life of cordless tools.

The bronze SST surface treatment provides lubricity and heat resistance, reducing friction between the bit and the workpiece to prevent binding.

Yes, it works excellently on non-ferrous metals like aluminum, as the flute design helps clear the soft chips that typically clog other bits.
