OVERVIEW

The Ultimate Solution for Misaligned Bolt Holes

Every welder and ironworker knows the frustration of bolt holes that just won't line up. When you're up on a beam or in the middle of a fabrication job, you need a tool that works as hard as you do. Enter the Walter 1-1/16" Reamer (01P101). This isn't your average drill bit; it's a heavy-duty bridge reamer designed specifically to enlarge and align holes in steel, stainless steel, and aluminum so you can drop your bolts in and move on to the next connection.

Built tough in the UK from High-Speed Steel (HSS), this reamer is made to cut through metal without burning up. If you've ever had a bit spin in your drill chuck just when you're applying pressure, you'll appreciate the smart design of the shank on this tool. It features a 1/2" shank with three flat sides. These flats give your drill chuck something to bite onto, guaranteeing that the reamer won't slip, no matter how much torque you're pushing. This means you get the job done faster and with less hassle.

The tapered tip is a game-changer for field work. It allows you to insert the reamer into two overlapping holes that aren't perfectly aligned. As you drill, the tapered sides pull the holes into alignment while enlarging them to the perfect 1-1/16" size. It's the ideal tool for steel erection, truck frame repair, and general metal fabrication. Don't waste time fighting with files or burning up cheap bits—keep a Walter reamer in your toolbox for those tough alignment jobs.

FAQ

The Walter 01P101 reamer is manufactured from premium High-Speed Steel (HSS), which offers superior durability and heat resistance compared to standard carbon steel tools.

Yes, provided your drill has a 1/2" chuck capacity. The shank is exactly 1/2" in diameter.

The three flats are designed to provide a secure gripping surface for the drill chuck jaws, preventing the tool from spinning or slipping inside the chuck under high torque.

Absolutely. The High-Speed Steel construction is robust enough to effectively cut and ream stainless steel, as well as mild steel and aluminum.

This reamer is designed to create or enlarge a hole to a final diameter of 1-1/16 inches.

While the reamer is durable, using a cutting lubricant like Walter Coolcut is highly recommended to extend the tool's life and ensure a smoother cut, especially on thicker metals.

No, this reamer is designed for use with rotary drills (pneumatic or electric) with a standard 3-jaw chuck. It is not compatible with 1/4" hex impact drivers.

The tapered tip acts as a pilot, allowing you to easily insert the tool into misaligned or smaller holes and gradually enlarge them to the final size.
