Walter SST+ #6 Cobalt Jobber Drill Bit for Stainless Steel

The Welder's Choice for Tough Metal Drilling

Welders know that drilling through stainless steel and heavy plate requires a bit that won't burn out halfway through the job. The Walter #6 SST+ Jobber Drill Bit (01B506) is engineered specifically for these tough challenges. Built with a heavy-duty cobalt blend, this bit bites into metal and keeps cutting long after standard bits have dulled. It is an essential tool for any fabricator's arsenal, designed to handle the heat and stress of drilling through structural steel, stainless piping, and aluminum components.

Time is money in the welding shop, and the SST+ saves both. The integrated self-centering Speed Tip allows you to drill directly into the material without wasting time grabbing a center punch and hammer. This feature is a lifesaver when you are up on a ladder or working in tight quarters on a pipe run. The bit grabs the metal instantly and drills true, preventing the dreaded "walking" that scratches polished surfaces or misaligns holes.

Walter has also designed this bit with a back-tapered body and a bronze surface treatment to minimize friction. This means the drill runs cooler and smoother, reducing the load on your power tool and your wrist. Whether you are drilling out rivets, prepping for bolts, or creating pilot holes, the 01B506 delivers clean, precise holes with minimal burr. Stop struggling with cheap bits that snap and dull; upgrade to the industrial strength of Walter SST+.
