05B011 - Walter ICECUT 11/16" x 1" AICrN Coated Annular Cutter

Walter ICECUT Annular Cutter: The Pinnacle of Drilling Performance

The Walter 05B011 ICECUT Annular Cutter (11/16" x 1") represents a significant leap forward in magnetic drilling technology. Designed for the most demanding industrial environments, this cutter utilizes a state-of-the-art AICrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride) coating. Unlike traditional coatings, AICrN is engineered to withstand extreme thermal stress, maintaining hardness and cutting edge integrity at temperatures at least 200°C higher than conventional Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) cutters. This makes the ICECUT series the premier choice for heavy-duty fabrication where heat generation is a critical factor.

One of the standout features of the ICECUT line is its ability to perform exceptionally well in situations where external lubrication is either prohibited or difficult to apply. The advanced coating acts as a thermal barrier, preventing heat transfer to the cutter body and reducing friction during the cut. Combined with fully ground, extra-large flutes, the tool efficiently evacuates chips, preventing clogging and further reducing heat buildup. This results in a cleaner cut, longer tool life, and increased productivity on the shop floor.

The 11/16-inch diameter and 1-inch depth of cut make this tool versatile for a wide range of structural applications. Whether you are drilling through thick structural steel beams, stainless steel plates, or aluminum components, the ICECUT delivers consistent, burr-free holes. The modern tooth design and cutter geometry are optimized to handle high stress loads and instant impact, ensuring that the cutter remains durable even under aggressive drilling conditions. Equipped with a universal shank, it fits seamlessly into a variety of magnetic drilling units and stationary machines, making it a flexible addition to any professional toolset.

Key Benefits for Industrial Users:

• Extended Tool Life: The unique chromium and aluminum blend coating resists wear and oxidation better than standard alternatives.
• Versatile Material Compatibility: Excellent performance on stainless steel, aluminum, and structural steel.
• Heat Management: Specifically designed to run cooler and withstand higher operating temperatures.
