OVERVIEW

Walter Titanium Step Drill: One Bit, Multiple Sizes

Upgrade your toolbox with the Walter 01W021 Multi-Step Drill Bit, the ultimate solution for clean, fast hole drilling in sheet metal. If you are tired of constantly swapping out drill bits or struggling with bits that wander and chatter, this premium step drill is the answer. Capable of drilling holes ranging from 3/16" to 1/2", it is like having a complete drill index in a single, high-performance tool. It is perfect for electricians, auto body techs, and welders who need to prep thin materials quickly and accurately.

Built for Stainless and Sheet Metal

Drilling through stainless steel can destroy cheap bits in seconds. That is why Walter Surface Technologies equipped this bit with a special titanium coating. This high-tech finish resists heat and wear, keeping the cutting edges sharp even after repeated use in tough alloys. It is designed specifically for materials up to 1/8" thick, cutting through them like butter without warping the metal or leaving jagged edges.

No Pilot Hole Needed

Speed up your workflow with the self-centering point. You can place the tip exactly where you need the hole and start drilling immediately—no center punch or pilot hole required. The bit bites instantly and tracks straight. Plus, the two wide flutes clear chips out of the way fast, ensuring a smooth, chatter-free cut every time. You get professional-looking, perfectly round holes with minimal effort.

Whether you are installing conduit, modifying a control panel, or fabricating a custom bracket, the 01W021 gives you the versatility and reliability you need to get the job done right the first time. Stop wasting time changing bits and start drilling smarter.

FAQ

The Walter 01W021 is designed for use on materials up to 1/8 inch thick.

No, it features a self-centering point that prevents walking, allowing you to start drilling directly without a pilot hole or center punch.

The titanium coating increases the surface hardness of the bit and reduces friction, which improves wear resistance and extends the tool's life, especially in tough materials like stainless steel.

Yes, the titanium coating and flute design make it suitable for drilling stainless steel, provided the material is under 1/8" thick.

This multi-step drill covers a range from 3/16 inch to 1/2 inch.

The two wide flutes help evacuate chips quickly to prevent clogging and are designed to eliminate chatter, resulting in cleaner, rounder holes.

Yes, step drills are excellent for enlarging existing holes to precise diameters without grabbing or binding in the material.

While technically possible by a specialized service, step drills are difficult to resharpen manually without altering the step geometry. The titanium coating also complicates resharpening.
