05F101 - Walter ICECUT 1-1/16 Inch x 1 Inch Annular Cutter Universal Shank

Advanced AICrN Coating Technology

The Walter ICECUT Annular Cutter (05F101) represents a significant leap forward in hole-making technology for industrial fabrication. At the core of its performance is the exclusive AICrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride) coating. Unlike traditional Titanium (TiN) or Titanium-Aluminum (TiAlN) coatings, this advanced formulation is engineered to withstand extreme thermal stress. It remains stable at temperatures up to 200 degrees Celsius higher than conventional coatings, making it the premier choice for applications where external lubrication is restricted, messy, or impossible to apply. This thermal stability translates directly to extended tool life and consistent cutting performance even under heavy loads.

Precision Geometry and Design

Beyond the coating, the ICECUT features a sophisticated physical design tailored for efficiency. The cutter is manufactured with fully ground, extra-large flutes which are essential for efficient chip evacuation. This design prevents clogging and heat buildup during deep drilling operations, which is critical for maintaining hole tolerance and finish. The modern tooth geometry is optimized to reduce vibration and chatter, ensuring a clean, burr-free hole in materials ranging from structural steel to stainless steel and aluminum. The 1-1/16" diameter and 1" depth of cut make it a versatile tool for standard fabrication tasks.

Universal Compatibility

Designed for the modern industrial environment, this cutter is equipped with a universal shank. This feature ensures broad compatibility with a wide array of magnetic drilling units and stationary machines, eliminating the need for specialized adapters. Whether working on vertical beams or bench-mounted setups, the ICECUT delivers reliable precision. Its resistance to sudden impacts and heavy loads makes it a durable asset in high-production settings where downtime must be minimized.
