01H007 - Walter 7/64 Sst Stub Drill

Tough Drilling for Tough Fabrication

Every welder knows the frustration of snapping a drill bit halfway through a critical job. The Walter 7/64" SST Stub Drill Bit is built to solve exactly that problem. When you are fitting up metal, drilling out spot welds, or making pilot holes in tight chassis corners, you need a bit that is as tough as the material you are working on. This stub drill features a shorter overall length compared to standard jobber bits, which gives it incredible rigidity. This stiffness allows you to apply the necessary feed pressure to cut through hardened materials like stainless steel without the bit flexing and shattering.

Time is money in the shop, and the 135° split point on this Walter bit is a massive time-saver. It bites into the metal instantly on contact, preventing the bit from wandering or skating across your workpiece. This is crucial when you are working on expensive stainless sheets or trying to drill out a rivet without damaging the surrounding panel. You can say goodbye to the hammer and center punch for most applications; just point and drill. The clean cutting action also minimizes burr formation on the exit side of the hole, saving you time on cleanup and deburring before you start welding.

The "SST" in the name stands for Super Speed Tip, but it also represents the high-performance bronze surface treatment applied to the bit. This coating helps clear chips efficiently and prevents the bit from overheating and annealing. When drilling aluminum or other non-ferrous metals, this lubricity helps prevent chip welding, where the metal melts and sticks to the flutes. For welders working on automotive bodies, HVAC ducting, or custom fabrication, this versatility means you can grab one bit for mild steel, stainless, and aluminum without hesitation.

Whether you are drilling into a frame rail with a hand drill or setting up a repetitive task on the bench, the Walter 01H007 delivers professional results. Its compact size allows you to get your drill into tight spots inside cabinets or between structural members where a long bit would be impossible to use. Don't let cheap, brittle bits slow down your fabrication projects. Upgrade to the Walter SST Stub Drill and experience the difference that professional-grade geometry and materials make in your daily work.
