OVERVIEW

High-Performance Drilling with Walter ICECUT Technology

The Walter 05F312 ICECUT Annular Cutter represents the pinnacle of hole-making technology for industrial fabrication. Engineered with a diameter of 3/4 inch and a cutting depth of 2 inches, this tool is specifically designed to tackle the toughest materials found in modern manufacturing and construction environments. What sets the ICECUT series apart is its revolutionary coating technology. Unlike traditional Titanium Nitride (TiN) or Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) coatings, the ICECUT utilizes a specialized Aluminum Chromium Nitride (AICrN) blend. This advanced formulation provides an exceptional thermal barrier, allowing the cutter to maintain its hardness and cutting edge integrity at temperatures up to 200°C higher than conventional alternatives.

For industrial operators, this thermal stability translates directly to productivity. The ability to withstand extreme heat means the 05F312 is particularly effective in applications where liquid coolants are impractical or prohibited, such as overhead drilling or in finished environments. The coating also significantly reduces friction, preventing the work hardening often associated with drilling stainless steel. Combined with fully ground, extra-large flutes, the cutter evacuates chips rapidly, reducing downtime associated with clogging and ensuring a clean, burr-free finish every time.

Versatility is a core component of the Walter ICECUT design. The cutter features a universal shank, ensuring compatibility with a wide array of magnetic drilling units and stationary machines without the need for specialized adapters. Whether you are processing structural steel, aluminum, or heavy-gauge stainless plate, the 05F312 delivers consistent, precise holes with minimal effort. The sophisticated tooth geometry reduces the load on the machine motor, extending the life of both the tool and your equipment. Invest in Walter ICECUT for a drilling solution that combines speed, durability, and adaptability in one robust package.

FAQ

The AICrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride) coating provides superior heat resistance, allowing the cutter to withstand temperatures 200°C higher than standard TiAlN coatings. This extends tool life, especially in tough materials like stainless steel.

No, this cutter features a universal shank, making it compatible with the majority of standard magnetic drilling units and stationary machines available on the market.

Yes, the ICECUT series is specifically designed for applications where lubricants are not allowed or pose challenges, thanks to its high heat tolerance. However, using a lubricant or paste can still further extend tool life.

It is engineered for drilling a wide range of metals, including mild steel, structural steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.

The Walter 05F312 has a cutting depth capacity of 2 inches.

Yes, high-quality annular cutters like the ICECUT can typically be re-sharpened, provided they are not damaged beyond repair, extending the overall value of the tool.

An annular cutter cuts only the periphery of the hole, ejecting a solid slug. This requires less power and time compared to a twist drill, which must turn all the material in the hole into chips.

This specific model has a cutting diameter of 3/4 inch.
