Every welder knows the frustration of burning through drill bit after drill bit when working with stainless steel. The Walter 11/32" SST+ Drill Bit (01A522) is the solution to that problem. Designed with the professional fabricator in mind, this bit is built to bite hard and last long. It is made with a special cobalt blend that stands up to the intense heat generated when drilling hard metals. While standard black oxide bits might smoke and dull after a few holes, the SST+ keeps its edge, allowing you to drill more holes per bit and spend less time swapping out tools.
One of the standout features for job site work is the 135-degree split point. If you are drilling into a pipe, a railing, or a flat plate without a pilot hole, this bit stays exactly where you put it. It won't wander or "walk" across the metal, which saves your workpiece from scratches and ensures your holes are exactly where they need to be. The "High Flow" flute design is another huge advantage; it pulls metal chips out of the hole quickly. This keeps the bit cooler and prevents it from binding up, which is a common way to snap bits when drilling by hand.
Whether you are installing brackets, fabricating custom parts, or doing general MRO work, the Walter SST+ is the reliable choice. It cuts through mild steel like butter and handles stainless steel with authority. For the best results and even longer life, we recommend pairing this bit with a high-quality cutting lubricant like Walter Coolcut. This bit isn't just a consumable; it's a productivity tool that helps you finish the job faster and with less effort.
