HSS Fractional Drill Bit - Left Hand HD - 5/32 In - Hanson

The Hanson 30210 5/32" Left Hand Heavy Duty HSS Fractional Drill Bit is engineered for professional technicians and mechanics tackling demanding extraction tasks. This robust screw machine length drill bit is designed for efficient removal of broken fasteners and screws, offering a reliable solution in automotive repair, industrial maintenance, and general fabrication environments.

Key Features

• Left-Hand Rotation: Specifically designed for counter-clockwise operation, making it ideal for extracting broken bolts, screws, and studs without further tightening the fastener.
• Heavy-Duty Web Construction: Features a thicker web for enhanced strength and durability, minimizing breakage under strenuous conditions.
• High-Speed Steel (HSS): Manufactured from premium HSS, ensuring prolonged sharpness and resistance to wear when drilling through various materials.
• Black Oxide Finish: A black oxide coating provides increased lubricity, reduces chip welding, and offers improved corrosion resistance, extending the tool's lifespan.
• Screw Machine Length: The shorter overall length of this drill bit enhances rigidity and minimizes deflection, resulting in more precise drilling and reduced bit breakage.
• 118° Point: A standard 118° point angle allows for effective general-purpose drilling and simplifies starting on various surfaces.

Applications

This 5/32" left-hand drill bit is an essential tool for situations requiring the removal of broken fasteners where traditional right-hand drilling would only worsen the problem. It is particularly effective for:

• Broken Bolt Extraction: Use in conjunction with screw extractors to grip and remove snapped bolts from engine blocks, manifolds, suspension components, and industrial machinery.
• Damaged Screw Removal: Ideal for extracting screws with stripped heads or those seized in place, common in vehicle interior and exterior repairs, as well as equipment assembly.
• Preventative Fastener Damage: Its left-hand design ensures that the drilling action helps to loosen the broken fastener rather than tightening it further into the material.
