Walter SST+ 5/16" Cobalt Jobber Drill Bit with Quick Shank

Reliable 5/16" Drill Bit for Metal Fabrication

For welders and fabricators who demand efficiency and reliability in their everyday tools, the Walter 5/16" SST Jobber Drill Bit (01A020A) is a workshop essential. When you are in the middle of a fabrication project, the last thing you need is a drill bit that dulls quickly or slips in the chuck. Walter has addressed these common issues with a robust cobalt blend construction that holds its edge longer, even when drilling through multiple layers of metal. This bit is specifically optimized for mild steel and thin gauge metals, making it a go-to accessory for prep work and assembly.

The 01A020A is built for speed and convenience. It features a self-centering "Speed Tip" that bites into the metal instantly. This means you can say goodbye to the extra step of using a center punch or struggling to keep the bit steady on a slick surface. It is especially useful when drilling into round stock or pipe, where standard bits often wander. The back tapered body design further enhances performance by reducing friction on the sides of the bit, allowing for cleaner holes and less heat buildup.

What truly sets this bit apart for the mobile welder is its compatibility with cordless tools. The unique Quick Shank ensures the bit locks firmly into your drill's chuck, preventing it from spinning inside the jaws when the going gets tough. This secure connection, combined with the bit's free-cutting design, puts less strain on your drill's motor and battery, letting you get more work done on a single charge. Whether you are in the shop or out on a field repair, the Walter SST drill bit provides the durability and precision you need to keep your projects moving forward.
