OVERVIEW

Tough Bits for Tight Spots

Stop snapping drill bits when you are working in tight quarters. The Walter 01H108 1/8" Hex SST Stub Drill is built for the welder and fabricator who needs a bit that can take a beating. Known as a "stubby" or screw machine length drill, this bit is shorter than your standard drill bit. That shorter length gives it incredible strength, making it much harder to snap off when you are leaning into a hole or working at an awkward angle. It is the perfect solution for drilling out rivets, working on auto body panels, or installing hardware in electrical boxes.

Time is money, and slipping chucks waste both. That is why this Walter bit comes with a solid hex shank. It locks tight into your drill or impact driver and won't spin, no matter how much torque you apply. You get full power transfer directly to the cutting edge. Speaking of the cutting edge, the 135-degree split point is a game-changer. It bites into the metal the instant it touches, so you don't have to worry about the bit wandering across your fresh stainless steel or aluminum finish. You don't even need a center punch—just point and drill.

This isn't just a generic bit; it features Walter's special bronze SST surface treatment. This coating helps shed heat and keeps the cutting edge sharp longer, even when you are drilling through tough stainless steel or mild steel sheet metal. Whether you are in the shop or out on a service truck, having a reliable stub drill like this in your kit means you spend less time changing broken bits and more time getting the job done. It is durable, precise, and designed for the real-world demands of metalworking.

Key Benefits for Fabricators

FAQ

A stub drill is shorter, which makes it more rigid and significantly less likely to break or flex during drilling. This is ideal for hard materials or when using hand drills.

No, it features a 135° split point that is self-centering, allowing it to penetrate immediately without walking or skating on the surface.

Yes, the Walter SST Stub Drill is designed with a special bronze surface treatment and geometry specifically for drilling stainless steel, mild steel, and non-ferrous metals.

It has a Hex shank, which prevents slipping in the chuck and allows for use with quick-change adapters and impact drivers.

Yes, the self-centering split point makes it excellent for drilling into round or curved surfaces like pipes and tubing without slipping.

This specific drill bit (SKU 01H108) has a diameter of 1/8 inch.

SST stands for a special bronze surface treatment that reduces friction and heat buildup, extending the life of the tool.

The 135-degree point cuts cleanly with less pressure, and the short length prevents the flexing that often causes bits to snap when breaking through thin metal.
