OVERVIEW

Precision and Speed for Professional Fabricators

For welders and metal fabricators, the Walter 7/64" SST Jobber Drill Bit is the ultimate solution for preparing materials and executing precise modifications. When working on site or in the shop, time is money, and the SST bit is built to save both. Its unique cobalt blend construction provides the toughness required to tackle demanding drilling tasks without snapping or dulling prematurely. This durability is essential when working with varied materials ranging from thin gauge sheet metal to structural mild steel components.

The "Speed Tip" geometry is particularly beneficial for welding preparation. It eliminates the tendency of the bit to "walk" or wander across the workpiece surface, ensuring that every hole is drilled exactly where it is marked. This self-centering capability is critical when drilling into pipes, tubing, or other round surfaces often encountered in welding projects. By removing the need for center punching, fabricators can streamline their workflow and achieve tighter tolerances in their fit-ups.

Designed with the modern fabricator in mind, the Walter SST bit features an exclusive Quick Shank. This shank profile is optimized for cordless drills, which are a staple in mobile welding rigs. By preventing the bit from slipping in the chuck, the Quick Shank ensures that all the torque from the drill is applied to the cut, maximizing the efficiency of your battery-powered tools. This means you can keep working longer without stopping to swap batteries or retighten the chuck.

Additionally, the back tapered body and bronze surface treatment work together to evacuate chips smoothly and reduce heat buildup. This is vital when drilling through stacked or multi-layer metals, preventing the bit from seizing. With the Walter 01A007, you get a reliable, heavy-duty tool that matches the high standards of professional welding craftsmanship.

FAQ

The Quick Shank ensures a secure grip in both keyed and keyless chucks, preventing the bit from spinning under load and maximizing efficiency for cordless drills.

While the SST line is generally robust, this specific bit is recommended for aluminum, mild steel, and non-ferrous metals. For hardened stainless steel, check specific compatibility or use a dedicated high-cobalt stainless bit.

No, the Walter SST bit features a self-centering 'Speed Tip' that prevents walking, allowing you to start drilling directly on the mark, even on round surfaces.

It is crafted from a unique cobalt blend, which offers superior heat resistance and durability compared to standard high-speed steel.

Yes, the self-centering tip makes it excellent for drilling into round surfaces like pipes and tubing without slipping.

The back tapered body reduces friction between the bit and the sides of the hole, preventing binding and overheating, especially in deep holes.

This specific bit (SKU 01A007) has a diameter of 7/64 inches.

The Quick Shank design prevents slippage, ensuring efficient torque transfer which helps conserve battery life and allows for more holes per charge.
