05B500 - Walter ICECUT 2-Inch Diameter x 2-Inch Depth Annular Cutter with AICrN Coating

Advanced AICrN Technology for Industrial Drilling

The Walter ICECUT Annular Cutter (SKU: 05B500) represents a significant leap forward in core drilling technology, specifically engineered for high-performance industrial environments. At the heart of this tool is its exclusive coating—a unique blend of chromium and aluminum (AICrN). This advanced formulation allows the cutter to withstand operating temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) higher than conventional Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) coatings. This thermal resilience is critical in automated or semi-automated drilling operations where heat buildup is the primary cause of tool failure.

Beyond thermal management, the ICECUT is designed with fully ground, extra-large flutes. This geometric optimization ensures rapid chip evacuation, preventing clogging and reducing the mechanical load on the machine. The cutter's modern tooth design is precision-ground to bite into materials ranging from aluminum to structural steel and stainless steel with minimal vibration. The result is a cleaner hole with less burr, reducing the need for secondary finishing operations.

The 05B500 model features a 2-inch cutting diameter and a 2-inch depth of cut, making it a robust solution for heavy fabrication tasks. Its universal shank ensures compatibility with a broad range of magnetic drilling units, allowing for seamless integration into existing tool cribs. By combining high-impact resistance with superior heat dissipation, Walter Surface Technologies has created a cutter that maintains its edge longer, even under the stress of dry drilling or minimal lubrication scenarios.
