01E678 - Walter SST 29-Piece Drill Bit Set with Quick Shank and Plastic Case

Reliable Metal Drilling for Fabricators

For welders and fabricators, a reliable set of drill bits is as essential as the welding torch itself. The Walter 01E678 29-Piece SST Drill Bit Set delivers industrial-grade performance in a package built for the shop floor. Whether you are drilling out spot welds, preparing pilot holes for fasteners, or fabricating custom brackets, this set provides the versatility and durability required for daily use. The set covers all standard fractional sizes between 1/16" and 1/2", ensuring you are never left searching for the right tool in the middle of a critical repair or build.

Engineered for the Job Site

The 01E678 set comes in a bright orange, shock-resistant polyethylene case that stands out in a crowded toolbox and protects your investment from moisture, dust, and impact. The robust latch and hinged internal panels keep the bits organized and secure during transport. Inside, the high-performance SST bits are designed to cut freely and stay sharp longer. The 135° split point is particularly beneficial when working on curved surfaces like pipe or tubing, as it bites into the metal instantly without skidding, ensuring your holes are positioned exactly where you need them.

Secure Grip, Better Safety

Slipping drill bits can be a safety hazard and a productivity killer. Walter has addressed this with their Quick Shank technology. By incorporating three flat surfaces on the shank of the bit, the drill chuck can apply equal pressure on all sides, creating a mechanical lock that prevents rotation. This is especially important when drilling through thicker steel plate or when the bit breaks through the backside of the material, where grabbing and stalling often occur. With the Walter SST set, you get consistent torque and smoother drilling action, making it a top choice for professional welders.
