OVERVIEW

Tough Bits for Tight Spots

Every welder knows the frustration of snapping a drill bit halfway through a job, especially when working in a cramped position or on a piece of hardened stainless. The Walter 13/64" SST Stub Drill (01H013) is the solution to that headache. Built with a "stub" profile, this bit is shorter and stockier than your average drill bit. That extra thickness-to-length ratio gives it incredible strength, making it nearly impossible to snap during normal hand-held drilling operations. It is the perfect companion for your portable drill when you are out in the field or in the shop.

Designed to tackle the metals welders face daily, this bit eats through stainless steel, sheet metal, and aluminum with ease. The 135-degree split point is a game-changer for freehand drilling. You can place the tip exactly where you want the hole, pull the trigger, and it digs in instantly—no center punch required, and no scratching up the surface as the bit tries to wander away. This precision is vital when drilling out rivets or prepping surfaces for welding.

The Bronze SST coating isn't just for looks; it helps the bit run smoother and cooler, preventing it from binding up in the hole. Whether you are drilling out spot welds on a car body, installing brackets in a tight HVAC cabinet, or fabricating a custom stainless frame, this Walter stub drill delivers the performance you need. Stop wasting money on cheap bits that break; upgrade to the durability of Walter SST.

FAQ

A stub drill, also known as a screw machine length drill, has a shorter flute and overall length than a standard jobber bit. This makes it much more rigid and resistant to breakage, ideal for portable drilling.

Yes, the Walter SST Stub Drill is specifically designed with a heavy-duty web and surface treatment to effectively drill through tough materials like stainless steel.

No, the 135° split point geometry is self-centering, meaning it will start drilling immediately upon contact without walking, eliminating the need for a center punch.

The Bronze SST treatment reduces friction and heat buildup during the drilling process, which helps to extend the life of the cutting edge and allows for smoother operation.

Absolutely. The stub length reduces the chance of snapping the bit if your hand wobbles, and the split point prevents the drill from skating across the surface.

This specific bit (01H013) has a diameter of 13/64 inches.

A 135-degree point puts more cutting lip in contact with the material sooner and is flatter, which reduces the load per unit of area, making it more durable for harder metals like stainless.

Yes, the short length and precise split point make it excellent for drilling out rivets, as it stays centered on the rivet head easily.
