OVERVIEW

Precision Engineering for Industrial Material Removal

The Walter SM-5 Double Cut Carbide Burr represents the pinnacle of precision manufacturing in the field of industrial abrasives. Designed for professionals who demand consistency and longevity, this rotary file is crafted from the highest quality tungsten carbide. In industrial environments where downtime equates to lost revenue, the durability of your tooling is paramount. Walter Surface Technologies has engineered this burr to withstand the rigorous thermal and mechanical stresses associated with heavy-duty grinding, deburring, and enlarging operations.

One of the standout features of this tool is its impeccable concentricity. Unlike inferior burrs that may wobble or vibrate at high RPMs, the Walter SM-5 is balanced to perfection. This balance is critical not only for the quality of the finish but also for the preservation of your pneumatic or electric die grinders. Excessive vibration can damage spindle bearings over time; by using a precision-balanced Walter burr, you are effectively protecting your capital equipment while achieving superior results.

The "Double Cut" geometry, often referred to as a diamond pattern, is specifically engineered for versatility. It features flutes cut in two opposing directions, which serves to break down chips into smaller, manageable granular particles rather than long, dangerous slivers. This design allows for rapid material removal rates without sacrificing control, making it an excellent choice for harder materials like stainless steel and high-tensile alloys. The SM-5 pointed cone shape is particularly useful for accessing tight angles, chamfering edges, and working inside conical recesses where other shapes cannot reach.

Whether you are operating in aerospace manufacturing, mold making, or general metal fabrication, the reliability of your consumables dictates the efficiency of your workflow. This Walter carbide burr delivers a consistent cut from the first use to the last, ensuring that tolerances are maintained and surface finishes meet the strictest quality control standards. Invest in tooling that matches the caliber of your work.

FAQ

Single cut burrs have flutes running in one direction and are used for general material removal with long chips. Double cut burrs, like this Walter model, have cross-cut flutes that produce smaller chips, offer better operator control, and leave a smoother finish.

Yes, the Walter SM-5 Double Cut is specifically designed for use on hard metals, including stainless steel, steel alloys, and cast iron.

This burr is designed for use with pneumatic or electric die grinders. Ensure your tool's collet size matches the burr's shank diameter.

The SM-5 is a pointed cone shape. It is ideal for working in tight corners, angled areas, and for enlarging holes or deburring inside contours.

High concentricity means the burr spins perfectly true. This prevents vibration (chatter), which ensures a smooth finish, reduces operator fatigue, and prevents premature wear on the die grinder's bearings.

Generally, carbide burrs can be used dry. However, using a lubricant like Walter Coolcut can help extend tool life and prevent chip loading when working with softer metals like aluminum, though this double cut is optimized for harder ferrous metals.

Always wear impact-resistant eye protection (safety glasses and a face shield), hearing protection, and gloves. The small chips produced can be ejected at high speeds.
