OVERVIEW

Maximize Your Drilling Speed and Tool Life

For professional welders and fabricators, time is money, and changing out dull drill bits is a frustration you don't need. The Walter 2-3/8" x 2" Icecut annular cutter is built to keep you working longer and faster. Whether you are drilling through thick structural beams or fabricating stainless steel components, this cutter is designed to handle the heat. The secret lies in its special grey coating—a mix of chromium and aluminum—that makes this bit tougher and more heat-resistant than the standard gold-colored bits you might be used to. This means you can push it harder and drill more holes before needing a replacement.

One of the biggest headaches on a job site is dealing with messy coolants, especially when working overhead or in finished environments. The Icecut is specifically engineered to perform exceptionally well even when using liquid lubricant isn't an option. While using a stick wax or paste is always recommended to extend life, this cutter won't burn up instantly if you run it dry for a quick hole. It runs cooler, keeping the metal from hardening up on you, which is a lifesaver when drilling stainless steel.

The design also features extra-large flutes that clear chips out of the hole fast. This prevents the bit from binding or clogging, which is the main cause of broken cutters. With a 2-inch depth of cut, you can easily handle heavy plate and tubing in a single pass. The universal shank fits almost any magnetic drill press on the market, so you don't need to worry about adapters or compatibility. If you want a cutter that cuts clean, stays sharp, and gets the job done right the first time, the Walter Icecut is the tool for your rig.

FAQ

The AICrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride) coating can withstand temperatures 200°C higher than TiAlN, providing better wear resistance and longer tool life, especially in tough materials.

Yes, the Icecut is specifically designed for applications where lubricants are not allowed or difficult to use, thanks to its heat-resistant coating. However, using a lubricant will always extend tool life.

It features a universal shank, making it compatible with the majority of magnetic drilling units on the market.

It is suitable for drilling aluminum, stainless steel, mild steel, and structural steel.

This specific cutter (05B506) has a depth of cut of 2 inches.

The extra large flutes help evacuate chips quickly from the hole, which reduces heat buildup and prevents the cutter from binding.

Yes, high-quality annular cutters like the Icecut can typically be resharpened, though the coating would be removed from the ground surfaces.

The diameter is 2-3/8 inches.
