For welders and fabricators, a drill bit is more than just a consumable; it's a key component in the assembly and finishing process. The Walter #60 SST+ Jobber Drill Bit is built to handle the diverse challenges of the welding workshop. Whether you are prepping a surface for a rivet, creating pilot holes, or fabricating intricate metal parts, this bit delivers the accuracy you need. At the heart of its design is the self-centering Speed Tip. This feature allows you to start drilling immediately without the need for a center punch, preventing the bit from "walking" across the surface and marring your workpiece.
Drilling through stainless steel is often a frustration for welders due to its tendency to harden as it heats up. Walter has solved this with a proprietary cobalt blend material that thrives in high-temperature applications. This means you can drill more holes per bit, saving money on replacements and time on tool changes. The #60 size (approximately 0.040 inches) is perfect for fine detail work where precision is critical. The bit's body is also back-tapered, a subtle engineering detail that reduces surface contact on the sides of the bit, minimizing friction and allowing for smoother, cooler cutting action.
Compatibility is key in a busy shop. The Walter SST+ is designed for use with both portable hand drills and stationary drill presses. Its round shank fits securely in standard chucks, providing a concentric rotation that ensures round, true-to-size holes every time. From aluminum and mild steel to the toughest stainless grades, the 01B560 is the reliable workhorse your toolbox needs. Stop struggling with burnt-out bits and experience the difference of professional-grade cutting technology.
