01V626 - Walter SD-5 Double Cut Carbide Burr - 6 Inch Extended Shank

Precision Engineering for Deep Access Applications

The Walter 01V626 Carbide Burr is a specialized abrasive tool designed for industrial professionals who require precision, durability, and reach. Part of Walter's premium line of tungsten carbide burrs, this model features the SD-5 Ball shape configuration, widely utilized for contouring, hole deburring, and milling in concave surfaces. What sets this specific tool apart is its "L6" designation, indicating a 6-inch extended shank. This structural feature is critical for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) tasks involving deep piping, engine manifolds, or complex castings where standard length burrs fall short.

Manufactured using the finest quality tungsten carbide, Walter burrs are engineered to maintain their cutting edge significantly longer than high-speed steel alternatives. The manufacturing process involves advanced CNC grinding technology that ensures superior accuracy in terms of concentricity and balance. This precision is vital when operating at high RPMs typical of die grinders; a balanced burr reduces vibration, thereby minimizing chatter marks on the workpiece and reducing operator fatigue during extended use. The shank itself is heat-treated to provide the necessary toughness to resist bending, ensuring safety and stability even when working at the full extension of the tool.

The "DC" in the product description refers to its Double Cut geometry. Unlike single cut burrs that produce long, sharp chips, the double cut design features cross-cut teeth. This configuration serves two primary purposes: it effectively breaks down chips into small, manageable granular particles, and it allows for faster stock removal with improved operator control. The double cut design reduces the pulling action often felt with single cut burrs, making it easier to guide the tool smoothly over the material. This makes the 01V626 an excellent choice for working with medium to hard metals, including steel, stainless steel, and cast iron.

In industrial settings, the ability to remove material rapidly without sacrificing surface finish is paramount. The Walter 01V626 delivers on this requirement by combining aggressive cutting action with the smooth operation of a precision-balanced tool. Whether used for enlarging holes, smoothing welds in deep crevices, or general metal shaping, this carbide burr represents the intersection of high-performance materials and thoughtful engineering design.
