OVERVIEW

Advanced Hole-Making Technology for Industrial Applications

The Walter 05F104 ICECUT Annular Cutter (1-1/4" Diameter x 1" Depth) represents the pinnacle of core drilling technology for the MRO and fabrication sectors. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this cutter is distinguished by its proprietary AICrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride) coating. Unlike standard Titanium Nitride (TiN) or Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) coatings, the AICrN formulation is specifically developed to manage extreme thermal loads. This advanced tribological coating allows the cutter to withstand operating temperatures at least 200°C (392°F) higher than conventional alternatives, significantly extending tool life in high-heat applications.

In industrial environments where liquid coolants are restricted—such as overhead drilling or in clean-room fabrication—the ICECUT's thermal resilience is a critical asset. The coating minimizes friction and dissipates heat effectively, preventing the work-hardening of sensitive materials like stainless steel. Furthermore, the cutter features a sophisticated geometry with fully ground, extra-large flutes. This design enhancement ensures rapid chip evacuation, preventing clogging and reducing the torque load on the magnetic drilling unit. The result is a cleaner, burr-free hole produced in less time.

The 05F104 is built with a Universal Shank, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of magnetic drill presses without the need for specialized adapters. Its robust construction is designed to handle the high pressure and instant impact loading often encountered during heavy structural steel drilling. By integrating cutting-edge metallurgy with precision engineering, Walter provides a solution that reduces downtime associated with tool changes and increases overall productivity in demanding metalworking operations.

Key Technical Benefits:

  • Thermal Stability: Operates efficiently at elevated temperatures where other cutters fail.
  • Material Versatility: Excellent performance on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including difficult-to-machine stainless steel alloys.
  • Structural Integrity: The AICrN coating provides a hard, protective barrier that resists abrasive wear and chipping.

FAQ

The AICrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride) coating provides superior heat resistance, allowing the cutter to withstand temperatures 200°C higher than standard TiAlN coatings, which extends tool life and allows for use with less lubricant.

The 05F104 features a Universal Shank, making it compatible with the majority of standard magnetic drilling units and stationary drill presses available on the market.

Yes, the ICECUT series is specifically engineered to excel in drilling stainless steel, as well as aluminum and structural steel, due to its ability to manage high heat generation.

This specific model (05F104) has a depth of cut of 1 inch.

Yes, the high heat resistance of the AICrN coating makes the ICECUT series particularly suitable for applications where applying lubricant is prohibited or problematic, although using lubricant when possible will always extend tool life further.

The fully ground extra-large flutes are designed to evacuate chips rapidly, preventing the cutter from clogging and reducing the physical effort required to drill through thick material.

The cutting diameter is 1-1/4 inches.

The Universal Shank is designed to be compatible with Weldon shank systems as well as other common holding systems like Nitto.
