OVERVIEW

High-Performance Drilling for Fabricators

For professional welders and fabricators, time is money, and tool failure is a costly interruption. The Walter 05B415 Icecut Annular Cutter (1-15/16" x 2") is built to keep your production line moving. Designed specifically for use with magnetic drilling units, this cutter excels in creating large, precise holes in structural steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The 2-inch depth of cut allows for single-pass drilling through thick plates, beams, and columns, making it an indispensable tool for heavy construction and metalworking projects.

The Icecut Advantage

What sets the Icecut apart from standard high-speed steel (HSS) or cobalt cutters is its state-of-the-art AICrN coating. In the welding and fabrication industry, drilling stainless steel often leads to work hardening and burnt bits. The Icecut's aluminum-chromium coating acts as a thermal barrier, preventing heat transfer into the cutter body. This means the cutting edges stay sharper for longer, even under the intense friction generated by drilling large diameter holes. For the operator, this translates to faster feed rates and less downtime spent changing out dull tools.

Universal Compatibility and Ease of Use

Walter has equipped the 05B415 with a universal shank, ensuring it fits securely into the arbors of most major magnetic drill brands. This "plug-and-play" compatibility means you can bring the superior performance of Walter abrasives to your existing equipment. The cutter's geometry is optimized to produce a slug that ejects cleanly, avoiding the frustration of jammed bits. The extra-large flutes clear chips efficiently, which is vital when drilling deep holes in gummy materials like aluminum or tough alloys like stainless.

Built for the Toughest Jobs

Whether you are fabricating chassis frames, erecting steel structures, or performing maintenance on heavy machinery, the reliability of your consumables is paramount. The Icecut is engineered to resist the shock loads associated with breaking through the material, a common point of failure for lesser cutters. Its ability to perform well with minimal lubrication also makes it a favorite for site work where managing coolant flow is difficult. Invest in the Walter Icecut for a drilling solution that matches the high standards of your welding and fabrication work.

FAQ

AICrN stands for Aluminum Chromium Nitride. It is a high-performance coating that provides exceptional heat resistance and hardness, allowing the cutter to withstand temperatures up to 200°C higher than standard TiAlN coatings.

The Icecut series is specifically designed for applications where lubricants are problematic or not allowed, thanks to its heat-resistant coating. However, using a lubricant or coolant will always extend the life of the tool further if conditions permit.

The Walter 05B415 has a depth of cut (DOC) of 2 inches, allowing it to drill through materials up to 2 inches thick in a single pass.

This cutter features a universal shank, which is designed to be compatible with the majority of magnetic drilling units on the market.

It is optimized for a wide range of materials including aluminum, stainless steel, and structural steel, making it highly versatile for mixed-material shops.

The fully ground extra-large flutes are designed to evacuate chips rapidly from the hole. This prevents clogging and heat buildup, which is especially important when drilling deep holes.

1-15/16 inches is the cutting diameter of the hole. The length (depth of cut) is 2 inches.

Annular cutters only cut the periphery of the hole, removing less material and requiring less horsepower and thrust than a twist drill. This results in faster drilling and cleaner holes, especially at larger diameters like 1-15/16".
