OVERVIEW

Heavy-Duty Stub Drill for Fabricators

For welders and fabricators, broken drill bits are more than just an annoyance—they are a delay in production. The Walter 5/64" SST Stub Drill (01H005) is built to solve this problem. Its short, robust profile is specifically designed for drilling through sheet metal, auto body panels, and structural steel without snapping. Because the bit is shorter, it doesn't flex under pressure, allowing you to lean into the cut and get the job done faster.

One of the standout features for metalworkers is the 135° split point. If you've ever struggled to start a hole on a piece of smooth stainless steel or a curved pipe, you know the frustration of the bit skittering away. This Walter bit bites instantly, creating its own pilot hole without the need for a center punch. This makes it perfect for drilling out spot welds or installing rivets in tight quarters where maneuvering a punch is difficult.

Durability is key in any welding shop, and the bronze SST coating on this bit ensures it stands up to the heat. By reducing friction, the coating keeps the cutting edge cooler, preventing work-hardening of the material and extending the life of the bit. From aluminum to stainless steel, this 5/64" stub drill is a versatile, reliable addition to any welder's toolbox, ensuring you spend less time changing broken bits and more time fabricating.

FAQ

Stub drills are shorter than standard jobber bits, which makes them much more rigid. This rigidity prevents flexing and significantly reduces the chance of the bit breaking, especially when applying pressure in tough materials.

No, the Walter SST Stub Drill features a 135° split point that self-centers on contact, preventing the bit from walking and eliminating the need for center punching.

Yes, the Walter SST Stub Drill is designed with a bronze SST surface treatment and heavy-duty geometry specifically to handle tough materials like stainless steel effectively.

It is suitable for mild steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, aluminum, and sheet metal.

Yes, the stub length makes it excellent for portable drilling applications as it is less likely to break if the drill is not held perfectly perpendicular.

The bronze SST treatment reduces friction and heat buildup during drilling, which helps extend the life of the tool and improves chip evacuation.

This specific drill bit (SKU 01H005) has a diameter of 5/64 inches.
