OVERVIEW

High-Performance Drilling for Industrial Applications

The Walter 01A010A 5/32" SST Jobber Drill Bit represents the pinnacle of drilling technology for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) professionals. Engineered with a premium cobalt blend, this tool is designed to withstand the high temperatures associated with continuous drilling in tough environments. Unlike standard high-speed steel bits, the SST series maintains its cutting edge longer, reducing downtime for bit changes and sharpening. The inclusion of a bronze SST surface treatment further enhances performance by significantly reducing friction, allowing for smoother operation and cleaner holes.

One of the standout features of this drill bit is its exclusive Quick Shank design. In industrial settings where time is money, the ability to change bits rapidly without sacrificing grip security is paramount. The Quick Shank features engineered flats that lock into both keyed and keyless chucks, preventing the bit from spinning under high torque loads. This ensures that power is efficiently transferred from the drill motor to the cutting edge, maximizing productivity. Additionally, the back tapered body construction minimizes the risk of binding, a common issue when drilling through multiple layers of material or thicker gauges.

Precision is critical in fabrication and assembly, and the Walter SST delivers with its self-centering Speed Tip. This innovative geometry allows the operator to start drilling exactly where intended without the need for a center punch, even on curved surfaces like pipes or tubing. By eliminating the tendency for the bit to "walk," users can achieve tighter tolerances and reduce scrapped parts. Whether you are working with mild steel, aluminum, or non-ferrous metals, the Walter 01A010A provides the reliability and consistency required for professional-grade results.

Designed specifically for thin gauge and sheet metals, this jobber length bit excels in applications requiring penetration through multiple layers. Its robust fully ground body construction ensures structural integrity, while the specialized flute design aids in rapid chip evacuation. For industrial supply needs, the Walter SST drill bit is a proven solution that combines durability, speed, and precision in a single package.

FAQ

This drill bit is constructed from a premium cobalt blend, which offers superior heat resistance and hardness compared to standard high-speed steel.

The Quick Shank features longitudinal flats that ensure a secure grip in the drill chuck, preventing the bit from spinning or slipping under high torque.

No, the self-centering Speed Tip allows you to start drilling precisely where you want without the bit walking, eliminating the need for a center punch.

Yes, it is specifically engineered for cordless drills. Its efficient cutting geometry reduces power consumption, allowing for more holes per battery charge.

While the cobalt blend is capable of drilling hard metals, this specific SST model is optimized for mild steel, aluminum, and thin gauge sheet metals. For heavy stainless plate, a dedicated stainless bit might be preferred, but it handles thin stainless sheets well.

The diameter is 5/32 of an inch.

The bronze SST surface treatment reduces friction between the bit and the workpiece, which helps keep the bit cooler and improves chip evacuation.

It is best suited for drilling thin gauge metals, sheet metal, and non-ferrous metals like aluminum, as well as drilling into round surfaces.
