Walter Surface launches new VP™ Countersinks

Walter Surface Technologies, the specialist in surface treatment technologies, has recently launched its redesigned line of VP™ Countersinks, designed to provide cooler and more precise drilling on stainless steel and other non-ferrous metals.

The new VP™ Countersinks have a wider tooth-design for better alignment and positioning, and feature an exclusive mixture of chromium and aluminum coating, which provides higher resistance to heat and a longer lifespan. This also helps to prevent continuous vibrations and overload on the tool. “The bits are stronger, tougher and offer optimal drilling precision,â€? says Stéphane Drainville, Product Manager, Tooling and Power Tools at Walter Surface Technologies. “They’re more stable and allow for chatter-free countersinking.â€?

The countersink bits come with a straight shank for use with hand drills, CNC machines, milling equipment and other automated machines. Plus, three new larger sizes have been added to the line, which all feature a Weldon shank for magnetic drilling units. New countersinking kits are available and now include five (5) countersinks of various sizes in a portable case. The VP™ Countersinks are a part of Walter’s complete line of drilling solutions, which include Walter’s Coolcut™ metal cutting lubricant and the Icecut™ magnetic drilling units.
