OVERVIEW

Experience Smoother Cuts with Walter 05A314 Annular Cutters

For welders and fabricators who demand precision and speed, the Walter 7/8" x 2" SST Core Cut Annular Cutter is the ultimate solution for hole making. Forget the struggle of using standard twist drills that require massive down-pressure and leave rough edges. This annular cutter removes material only at the periphery of the hole, ejecting a solid slug at the end of the cut. This method requires less energy and force, allowing you to drill large diameter holes quickly and effortlessly using a magnetic drill.

What sets the Walter SST apart is its specialized bronze surface treatment. This "Super Speed Tip" feature acts as a high-performance lubricant barrier, preventing the cutter from overheating even when drilling through work-hardening materials like stainless steel. The 2-inch depth of cut provides ample capacity for drilling through thick plate, pipe, and tubing. The cutter's geometry includes sophisticated tooth angles that bite into the metal cleanly, reducing vibration and chatter. This means you get a perfectly round hole that is ready for bolting or welding immediately, without the hassle of filing down burrs.

The universal shank design ensures that this cutter will fit your existing equipment, whether you use a Hougen, Nitto, or other standard magnetic drill press. The fully ground flutes are designed to channel chips out of the hole efficiently, which is essential when drilling deeper holes to prevent the bit from jamming. Whether you are working on-site or in the shop, the Walter 05A314 offers the reliability and cutting speed you need to keep your projects moving forward.

Why Choose Walter SST?

  • Effortless Drilling: Requires less feed pressure than solid drill bits.
  • Clean Finish: Leaves a smooth surface finish inside the hole.
  • Versatile Application: Excellent performance on steel, aluminum, and stainless.

FAQ

SST stands for Super Speed Tip. It is a special bronze surface treatment applied to the cutter that eliminates porosity, reduces friction, and improves heat dissipation for longer tool life.

The 05A314 features a universal shank, which is designed to fit most standard magnetic drilling units and stationary machines available on the market.

Yes, the Walter SST Core Cut is specifically engineered to perform well on stainless steel, as well as mild steel, structural steel, and aluminum.

This specific model (05A314) has a cutting depth of 2 inches.

Yes, using a high-quality cutting lubricant or coolant is highly recommended to maximize the life of the cutter and ensure the smoothest possible cut, especially in deep holes.

An annular cutter cuts only the periphery of the hole, leaving a solid slug in the center. This requires less power and force than a twist drill, which must convert the entire volume of the hole into chips.

Yes, high-speed steel annular cutters like the Walter SST can typically be resharpened, provided they are not damaged beyond repair.

The Walter 05A314 drills a hole with a diameter of 7/8 of an inch.
