OVERVIEW

Drill Faster and Smarter with Walter SST+

Every welder knows the frustration of drilling through stainless steel. The work hardening, the heat, and the constant need to sharpen or replace bits can slow down a project significantly. The Walter SST+ Jobber Drill Bit (Size #29) is the solution designed to keep your fabrication work moving smoothly. Built tough with a special cobalt blend, this bit is made to withstand the intense heat generated when drilling hard metals, ensuring it stays sharp long after standard bits have dulled.

One of the biggest advantages of the SST+ is its self-centering "Speed Tip." If you are working with a hand drill, you know how difficult it can be to keep a bit from wandering across the metal surface before it bites. With the SST+, the bit grabs instantly. You don't need to waste time grabbing a hammer and center punch for every single hole. Just line it up, pull the trigger, and the bit does the work. This feature alone saves countless minutes over the course of a day and improves the accuracy of your fit-ups.

Efficiency is key in any shop, and this drill bit is designed for speed. The unique flute design clears chips out of the hole quickly. This is crucial because re-cutting chips is what causes heat buildup and ruins bits. By clearing the debris efficiently, the SST+ runs cooler and cuts faster. The body of the bit is also slightly tapered to prevent it from binding or getting stuck in the hole, which is a common issue when drilling deep or through thick plate.

Whether you are drilling mild steel, aluminum, or tough stainless steel, the Walter SST+ delivers reliable performance. It requires less pressure to cut, reducing operator fatigue during long shifts. Compatible with both portable power drills and stationary drill presses, this #29 bit is a versatile addition to any tool crib, providing the durability and precision professional welders and fabricators demand.
