• Versatile Straight Shank: Designed for secure gripping in standard drill chucks, accommodating a wide range of drilling machines.

Applications

• Metal Drilling: Ideal for creating holes in various metals, including steel, cast iron, aluminum, and brass.
• Production Environments: Suited for use in screw machines, CNC machining centers, and other automated setups requiring precise, stable drilling.
• Shallow Hole Drilling: Optimized for applications where increased rigidity and reduced run-out are critical for accurate shallow holes.
• Pilot Hole Creation: Effective for drilling accurate pilot holes prior to tapping threads or using larger fasteners.
• General Maintenance and Repair: A reliable choice for everyday drilling needs where a robust, short-length bit is advantageous.

Benefits

• Enhanced Durability: The HSS material significantly extends tool life, resisting wear and maintaining sharpness even under high-temperature drilling conditions.
• Superior Precision and Accuracy: The rigid, short-length design minimizes wobble and deflection, producing consistently accurate and cleanly drilled holes.
• Reduced Bit Breakage: Its robust construction and stability substantially lower the risk of snapping, ensuring reliable performance and less downtime.
• Efficient Material Removal: Precision-ground flutes facilitate smooth and rapid chip evacuation, leading to faster drilling and reduced effort.
• Cost-Effectiveness: A longer tool life and reduced breakage translate into fewer bit replacements, offering significant long-term value for professional users.
