01V054 - Walter SA-5NF Aluminum Cut Carbide Burr 1/2-Inch

Precision Tungsten Carbide Burr for Non-Ferrous Applications

The Walter 01V054 Carbide Burr SA-5 NF represents the pinnacle of rotary file engineering for soft metal applications. Manufactured from the finest grade of tungsten carbide, this tool is designed to address the specific challenges associated with grinding non-ferrous materials such as aluminum, magnesium, copper, and zinc. Unlike standard double-cut burrs which can easily clog when processing soft materials, the SA-5 NF features a specialized non-ferrous geometry. This design incorporates a distinct coarse pitch and wide, open flutes that allow for rapid chip evacuation, effectively preventing the material from loading up in the teeth of the burr.

Precision manufacturing is at the core of the Walter 01V054. The burr is ground to exacting standards to ensure impeccable concentricity and balance. This precision is critical for minimizing vibration during operation, which not only extends the life of the tool but also reduces wear on the die grinder and fatigue for the operator. The SA-5 shape is a standard cylindrical configuration with a plain end, making it ideal for surface milling, contouring, and edge preparation where end-cutting is not required. With a standard 1/4-inch shank, it integrates seamlessly into industrial workflow environments utilizing pneumatic or electric die grinders.

Durability is a key characteristic of this tungsten carbide tool. The high-hardness substrate maintains a sharp cutting edge significantly longer than High-Speed Steel (HSS) alternatives, ensuring consistent performance over extended periods of use. Whether used for enlarging holes, deburring castings, or fine finishing welds on aluminum structures, the Walter SA-5 NF delivers remarkable efficiency. The tool's ability to remove material swiftly without interruption allows for higher productivity rates in fabrication shops, foundries, and maintenance operations.

In summary, the Walter 01V054 combines advanced metallurgical properties with application-specific geometry. It solves the common issue of burr clogging in soft metals, providing a smooth, controlled cutting action that leaves a high-quality surface finish. For professionals requiring reliable, high-performance material removal on non-ferrous substrates, this carbide burr is an essential component of the abrasive toolkit.
