Press Release Summary:
SST ICECUT(TM) Cutters utilize HSS-XE tool steel, fully ground to proprietary geometry before entering step hardening process that provides hardness of 12% cobalt tool steel without brittleness. After step hardening process, cutters go through surface coating process, which lays down 15 layers of coating material that is harder than carbide. Cutters have universal shank allowing them to be used in all makes of magnetic drills and milling machines.
Original Press Release:
SST ICECUT(TM) Guarantees More Holes per Dollar
Hartford, CT - J. Walter Inc. introduces SST ICECUT(TM), a revolution in annular cutter geometry and surface coating that will yield more holes per dollar than currently available cutters. Drill large diameter holes in less than half the time as before while getting more holes between sharpening, a lot more holes, guaranteed. A unique HSS-XE tool steel is fully ground to a proprietary geometry before entering a step hardening process that provides the hardness of 12% cobalt tool steel without the brittleness. After this careful step hardening process the cutter goes through an elaborate surface coating process that lays down 15 layers of a new, harder than carbide, coating material. These new cutters are quickly distinguishable by their rich blue color, a WALTER exclusive. SST ICECUT(TM) annular cutters have a universal shank allowing them to be used in all makes of magnetic drills, milling machines and more.
