01B506 - Walter SST+ #6 Cobalt Jobber Drill Bit for Stainless Steel

High-Performance Drilling for Industrial Applications

The Walter SST+ Jobber Drill Bit (#6) represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for industrial maintenance and fabrication. Designed to tackle the most demanding materials, this drill bit features a proprietary cobalt blend that significantly extends tool life, even when drilling through work-hardening alloys like stainless steel. For professionals who require precision and efficiency, the SST+ series delivers consistent results hole after hole.

One of the standout features of the 01B506 is its exclusive self-centering "Speed Tip." This geometry eliminates the need for center punching, allowing operators to start drilling immediately with pinpoint accuracy. This is particularly advantageous when working on round surfaces or in awkward positions where tool walking can damage the workpiece. The bit also incorporates a unique "High Flow" flute design which rapidly evacuates chips, preventing heat buildup and clogging that typically lead to premature failure.

Durability is further enhanced by Walter's special bronze SST surface treatment. This coating acts as a lubricant and heat shield, reducing friction during the cut. Whether utilized in a stationary drill press or a portable hand drill, the Walter #6 SST+ bit maintains its cutting edge longer than standard high-speed steel bits, making it a cost-effective choice for high-volume shops. It is the ideal solution for MRO environments where reliability is non-negotiable.

Key Technical Benefits

• Superior Material: Cobalt blend construction withstands high temperatures generated when drilling hard metals.
• Precision Starts: The self-centering tip prevents wandering, ensuring holes are drilled exactly where intended.
• Efficient Chip Removal: Optimized flute geometry clears debris quickly, reducing binding and heat.
• Versatile Performance: Excellent for mild steel, stainless steel, and non-ferrous metals.
