OVERVIEW

Precision Tungsten Carbide Burr for Heavy-Duty Applications

The Walter SC-1 Double Cut Carbide Burr (01V005) represents the pinnacle of rotary file technology, designed for professional metalworkers who demand efficiency and precision. Crafted from the highest grade of tungsten carbide, this tool is engineered to withstand the extreme heat and stress of heavy-duty grinding applications. Unlike standard high-speed steel bits, Walter's carbide composition maintains its cutting edge significantly longer, ensuring consistent performance over an extended lifespan.

This specific model features the SC-1 shape, which is a cylindrical configuration with a radius end. This profile is exceptionally versatile, allowing operators to grind flat surfaces while also accessing corners and contoured fillets without digging into the workpiece. It is an essential tool for mold making, deburring castings, and smoothing weld seams in confined spaces.

Double Cut Technology for Superior Control

The "DC" in the product name stands for Double Cut, referring to the advanced diamond-pattern fluting on the burr head. While single cut burrs are effective for general material removal, double cut burrs feature cross-cut flutes that break down chips into smaller, granular particles. This design offers several critical advantages:

Smoother Finish: The cross-cutting action reduces the ridges often left by single cut tools, leaving a surface that requires less secondary finishing.
Reduced Pull: Double cut burrs are easier to control because they do not "climb" or pull the tool across the workpiece, reducing operator fatigue and improving safety.
Efficient Evacuation: Smaller chips clear from the flutes more easily, preventing loading and clogging when working with gummy or heat-sensitive materials.

Engineered for Balance and Safety

One of the defining characteristics of Walter abrasives is their commitment to concentricity. This carbide burr is manufactured to exacting tolerances to ensure the head is perfectly aligned with the shank. This balance eliminates the vibration and chatter common in lower-quality bits, protecting both the die grinder bearings and the operator's hands from long-term stress. Whether you are enlarging holes, cleaning up welds on stainless steel, or performing fine finishing work, the Walter 01V005 delivers reliable, high-speed performance.

FAQ

Single cut burrs have one set of flutes and produce long chips, making them good for soft materials. Double cut burrs, like this Walter model, have cross-cut flutes (diamond pattern) that produce small chips, offer better control, and leave a smoother finish on harder metals like steel and stainless.

While it can cut aluminum, double cut burrs may clog (load up) with soft, non-ferrous metals. For aluminum, an 'Alu-Cut' or single cut burr with wide flutes is generally recommended to prevent clogging.

For a standard sized carbide burr, speeds typically range between 15,000 and 25,000 RPM. Always refer to the specific speed chart provided by Walter for the diameter of the burr to ensure safety and optimal cutting action.

The 'SC' code refers to a Cylindrical shape with a Radius End (also known as a ball nose cylinder). This shape allows for grinding on the side of the tool as well as using the rounded tip for contours.

Technically yes, but it is not recommended. Drills typically run at much lower RPMs (under 3,000) than required for carbide burrs. For proper performance and to prevent chipping the teeth, a high-speed die grinder (pneumatic or electric) is required.

Lubricant is generally not required for carbide burrs on steel or stainless steel, but using a wax or lubricant can help prevent loading when working with softer metals and can extend tool life by reducing heat.

Always wear impact-resistant eye protection (safety glasses and a face shield), hearing protection, and gloves. Carbide burrs spin at very high speeds and throw hot, sharp metal chips.

Concentricity ensures the burr spins perfectly true. Poor concentricity causes vibration (chatter), which leads to premature tool wear, damage to the grinder bearings, and an uneven finish on the workpiece.
