OVERVIEW

Advanced AICrN Technology for Superior Drilling Performance

The Walter 05B611 ICECUT Annular Cutter represents a significant leap forward in hole-making technology for industrial applications. Engineered with a proprietary Aluminum Chromium Nitride (AICrN) coating, this 11/16" x 3" cutter is designed to outperform and outlast traditional Titanium (TiN) and Titanium-Aluminum (TiAIN) coated tools. The unique tribological properties of the AICrN coating allow the cutter to withstand operating temperatures up to 200°C higher than conventional alternatives. This thermal resilience is critical when drilling through work-hardening materials like stainless steel or when external lubrication is difficult or impossible to apply.

Beyond its advanced coating, the ICECUT features a sophisticated geometric design. The fully ground, extra-large flutes ensure rapid chip evacuation, preventing clogging and heat buildup deep within the cut. This is particularly important for the 3-inch depth capacity of this model, where chip removal becomes a limiting factor for lesser tools. The modern tooth geometry reduces cutting forces, minimizing stress on both the tool and the magnetic drilling unit. This results in cleaner, burr-free holes and significantly extended tool life under heavy loads.

Versatility is central to the ICECUT's design. Equipped with a universal shank, this cutter is compatible with a wide array of magnetic drilling machines, ensuring seamless integration into existing workflows. Whether utilized in a fabrication shop or on a remote job site, the Walter 05B611 delivers consistent, high-precision performance across a variety of materials, including aluminum, structural steel, and stainless steel. It is the definitive choice for professionals demanding efficiency, durability, and precision in their metalworking operations.

FAQ

AICrN stands for Aluminum Chromium Nitride. It is a high-performance coating that provides exceptional hardness and heat resistance, allowing the cutter to operate at higher temperatures than standard TiN or TiAIN coatings.

Yes, the ICECUT series is specifically designed for applications where lubricants cannot be used or are difficult to apply, thanks to its high heat tolerance.

This specific model (05B611) has a depth of cut of 3 inches.

The ICECUT features a universal shank, making it compatible with the majority of standard magnetic drilling units on the market.

It is excellent for aluminum, stainless steel, mild steel, and structural steel.

The fully ground extra-large flutes help evacuate chips quickly, which reduces heat buildup and prevents the tool from binding in deep holes.

Yes, like most high-quality annular cutters, it can be resharpened, though the coating would be removed from the ground surfaces.

ICECUT cutters last significantly longer and cut faster in tough materials like stainless steel due to the advanced coating and geometry.
