OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Precision for Confined Spaces

The Walter 01H030 15/32" SST Stub Drill is engineered for the demanding requirements of industrial maintenance and repair operations (MRO). When working with portable power tools, standard jobber-length bits often suffer from flex and vibration, leading to premature breakage and inaccurate holes. This SST Stub Drill addresses these challenges with a shorter, more rigid flute design that maximizes torque transmission and stability. It is the ideal solution for drilling into thin-walled materials, sheet metal, and structural components where space is at a premium and reliability is non-negotiable.

At the core of this tool's performance is Walter's exclusive Bronze SST surface treatment. This specialized coating significantly reduces friction between the tool and the workpiece, allowing for cooler drilling temperatures and extended tool life. The heavy-duty High-Speed Steel (HSS) construction ensures that the cutting edges remain sharp even when tackling tough materials like stainless steel and non-ferrous metals. For maintenance professionals who need to drill out rivets, install fasteners in tight cabinetry, or work on machinery frames, the 01H030 offers the durability required to keep production lines moving.

Efficiency is further enhanced by the precision 135° split point geometry. Unlike standard 118° points that require a center punch to start, this drill bit self-centers immediately upon contact. This feature is critical when drilling on curved surfaces or pipes, preventing the bit from "walking" and damaging the surrounding finish. Whether used in a stationary drill press or a cordless hand drill, the Walter SST Stub Drill delivers consistent, burr-free results, reducing the need for secondary finishing operations.

FAQ

A stub drill is shorter, which makes it much more rigid and less prone to breaking or flexing. This is ideal for portable drilling and working in tight spaces.

No, the 135° split point is self-centering, allowing you to start drilling immediately without the bit walking, even on curved surfaces.

Yes, the SST Stub Drill is designed with a heavy-duty HSS body and bronze surface treatment specifically to handle tough materials like stainless steel.

The bronze SST treatment reduces friction and heat buildup during drilling, which extends the life of the tool and helps evacuate chips more efficiently.

Yes, the stub length is specifically recommended for hand drilling because the increased rigidity compensates for the instability of handheld tools.

The diameter is 15/32 of an inch.

Absolutely. The self-centering split point prevents the bit from sliding off round surfaces, ensuring accurate hole placement.

It excels in mild steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, and sheet metal applications.
