OVERVIEW

Walter 01B503 SST+ Jobber Drill Bit: The Professional's Choice

Upgrade your drilling arsenal with the Walter 01B503 SST+ Jobber Drill Bit, size #3. Known in the industry for their resilience and cutting speed, Walter's SST+ bits are the go-to solution for welders and fabricators who frequently encounter stainless steel and other hard metals. This bit is not just a cutting tool; it is a productivity booster designed to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use while delivering precise, clean holes every time.

Drill Stainless Steel with Ease

Standard drill bits often struggle with the work-hardening properties of stainless steel, leading to burnt tips and wasted time. The Walter 01B503 is manufactured with a specialized cobalt blend that thrives in these demanding conditions. The 135-degree split point angle is aggressive enough to penetrate quickly, reducing the dwell time that causes work hardening. This makes it an essential tool for any welder working on stainless steel fabrication, ensuring that your prep work is as efficient as your welding.

No Walking, Just Drilling

Precision is critical when drilling pilot holes or final clearance holes. The self-centering Speed Tip on this #3 wire gauge bit ensures that the drill starts cutting exactly where you place it. This capability is particularly valuable when working with portable drills on job sites where stability can be an issue. The tip bites into the metal immediately, preventing the bit from skating across the surface and damaging the finish of your workpiece.

Built for Heavy-Duty Applications

The 01B503 features a robust body design with high-flow flutes that effectively clear swarf and debris. This prevents the bit from binding up deep in the hole, a common cause of tool breakage. The bronze surface treatment adds an extra layer of protection, enhancing the bit's resistance to wear and reducing friction. Whether you are using a stationary drill press or a hand-held power tool, the Walter SST+ Jobber Drill Bit delivers consistent, high-quality results that professionals trust.

FAQ

The #3 wire gauge drill bit has a decimal equivalent diameter of 0.2130 inches.

Yes, the Walter SST+ series is specifically engineered with a cobalt blend to drill effectively through stainless steel and other hard alloys.

No, the exclusive Speed Tip design is self-centering, allowing you to start drilling precisely without a center punch, even on round surfaces.

The bronze SST treatment reduces friction and heat buildup, acting as a lubricant to extend the life of the drill bit.

Absolutely. The quick-biting Speed Tip and efficient flute design make it excellent for use with portable cordless drills, extending battery life by drilling faster.

This drill bit features a 135-degree split point angle, which is ideal for penetrating hard materials quickly.

The back tapered body prevents the sides of the bit from rubbing against the hole walls, which reduces binding and heat generation.
