01H008 - Walter 1/8 Sst Stub Drill

The Tough Little Bit That Won't Quit

Every welder knows the frustration of snapping a drill bit halfway through a job, especially when you are working in a tight corner or trying to drill out a stubborn spot weld. The Walter 01H008 1/8" SST Stub Drill is the solution to that headache. Designed with a shorter, stouter profile than standard drill bits, this "stub" bit is built for maximum strength. Because it is shorter, it doesn't flex or wobble, which means you can apply the pressure you need to get through the metal without worrying about the bit shattering. It is the perfect companion for body work, bracket fabrication, and any task where space is limited and durability is non-negotiable.

Forget about hunting for your center punch every time you need to drill a hole. This Walter bit features a precision-ground 135° split point. What does that mean for you? It means the moment the tip touches the metal, it starts cutting. It won't wander or "walk" across the surface, scratching up your workpiece. This self-centering feature is a lifesaver when you are drilling into slick sheet metal or rounded surfaces like tubing. You get a clean, precise hole exactly where you want it, faster and with less hassle.

Drilling stainless steel is notoriously tough on tools, but the Walter SST series is up to the challenge. The bit is treated with a special Bronze SST coating that helps it resist heat—the number one killer of drill bits. This coating helps the bit slide through the metal more easily and keeps the cutting edge sharp longer, even when you are drilling through hardened materials. Whether you are working with mild steel, aluminum, or stainless, this bit cuts clean and leaves minimal burrs, saving you time on cleanup and deburring later.

This 1/8-inch size is incredibly versatile, making it a staple for any welder's toolbox. It is ideal for drilling pilot holes for larger bits, removing rivets, or installing fasteners in thin-gauge materials. When you need a drill bit that works as hard as you do and fits where others can't, reach for the Walter SST Stub Drill. It delivers professional results and stands up to the abuse of daily shop use.
