OVERVIEW

Heavy-Duty Cobalt Drill Bit for Tough Metals

Fabricators and welders know that drilling stainless steel requires a tool that can take the heat. The Walter #23 SST+ Jobber Drill (01B523) is built exactly for that purpose. Made from a premium cobalt blend, this drill bit offers superior hardness and heat resistance compared to standard bits, making it the go-to choice for drilling through stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminum without dulling prematurely. It is an essential addition to any metalworker's toolkit, providing the durability needed for maintenance, repair, and fabrication tasks.

Stop struggling with drill bits that wander. The Walter SST+ features a self-centering Speed Tip that bites into the metal instantly. This is particularly useful when drilling into round stock, pipes, or uneven surfaces where standard bits tend to slip. You can drill straight, accurate holes faster and with less effort. The specialized bronze finish helps the bit run cooler, while the smart flute design clears chips out of the way quickly to prevent clogging and overheating.

Designed for use with both portable drills and stationary drill presses, this #23 wire gauge bit offers versatility across a wide range of applications. Its back-tapered body design prevents the bit from getting stuck or snapping inside deep holes, ensuring you finish your project without frustration. Choose Walter SST+ for a drilling solution that works as hard as you do.
