05B701 - Walter ICECUT 1-1/16 Inch x 3 Inch Depth Annular Cutter

Advanced Metallurgy for Superior Drilling Performance

The Walter 05B701 ICECUT Annular Cutter represents a significant leap forward in magnetic drilling technology. Designed for industrial environments where efficiency and tool longevity are paramount, this 1-1/16" diameter cutter features a cutting depth of 3". The defining characteristic of the ICECUT series is its proprietary AICrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride) coating. Unlike standard Titanium (TiN) or Titanium-Aluminum (TiAlN) coatings, AICrN is engineered to form a protective oxide layer at high temperatures, allowing the tool to maintain hardness and cutting edge integrity even when subjected to extreme thermal stress.

This advanced coating technology provides a heat resistance advantage of up to 200°C over conventional alternatives. This makes the 05B701 particularly effective in applications where external lubrication is hazardous, messy, or logistically impossible. The coating also significantly reduces friction, preventing the work hardening of sensitive materials like stainless steel. Combined with fully ground extra-large flutes, the cutter evacuates chips rapidly, reducing the risk of binding and ensuring a clean, burr-free hole.

Structurally, the cutter is designed to withstand the high torque and instantaneous impacts associated with heavy-duty fabrication. The modern tooth geometry optimizes the cutting action, requiring less feed pressure from the operator while delivering faster penetration rates. Whether used in a portable magnetic drill or a stationary machine, the universal shank ensures broad compatibility and secure chucking.
