OVERVIEW

The Welder's Choice for Reliable Metal Prep

For professional welders and fabricators, a drill bit is more than just a hole-maker; it's a critical tool for prep work, rivet removal, and spot weld drilling. The Walter 01A011 11/64" SST Jobber Drill Bit is built to withstand the rigors of the welding shop and the job site. We know that when you are up on a ladder or in a tight spot with a cordless drill, the last thing you need is a bit that spins in the chuck or dulls after a few holes. That is why Walter developed the Quick Shank. This feature ensures your drill chuck grabs the bit aggressively, preventing slippage so you can push through tough sheet metal with confidence.

Time is money in fabrication, and the SST's "Speed Tip" is a game-changer. It bites into the metal instantly upon contact, meaning you don't have to waste time grabbing a center punch and hammer just to start a hole. This is especially useful when working on curved surfaces like pipe or tubing, where standard bits tend to wander. The 11/64" size is a versatile standard for rivets and pilot holes, making this bit a staple in any welder's toolbox.

Durability is key when drilling through mild steel and non-ferrous metals. The cobalt blend material used in this Walter bit resists the high heat generated during drilling, keeping the cutting edges sharp longer than standard black oxide bits. Furthermore, the body design is optimized for thin gauge metals, often found in HVAC and automotive body work, ensuring clean, round holes without tearing the material. Whether you are drilling out a stubborn spot weld or prepping a bracket for mounting, the Walter SST bit delivers the performance and battery efficiency you need to get the job done right the first time.

FAQ

The Quick Shank design features flats on the shank that allow the drill chuck to grip the bit securely, preventing it from spinning or slipping inside the chuck during high-torque applications.

While the cobalt blend offers good heat resistance, this specific SST bit is optimized for mild steel, aluminum, and thin gauge metals. For heavy-duty stainless steel drilling, a dedicated high-cobalt or carbide bit might be preferable, though this will work for light tasks.

No, the Walter SST bit features a self-centering 'Speed Tip' that bites into the material immediately, eliminating the need for center punching and preventing the bit from walking.

Yes, it is highly recommended for cordless drills. The efficient cutting geometry and Quick Shank design help maximize battery life by reducing the energy required to drill each hole.

This specific drill bit has a diameter of 11/64 inches.

It is excellent for aluminum, mild steel, non-ferrous metals, and especially thin gauge or sheet metal.

The bit features a special bronze SST surface treatment which helps reduce friction and heat buildup.

The back-tapered body design reduces the surface area in contact with the hole walls, which minimizes friction and prevents the bit from binding or jamming.
