• Extended Reach: The "Long" design provides the necessary reach for accessing deep holes or confined spaces often encountered in aviation and industrial applications.
• Optimized Flute Geometry: Designed for efficient chip evacuation, reducing heat buildup and preventing material clogging during high-performance drilling.

Applications

• Aerospace and Aviation: Essential for precision drilling in aircraft manufacturing, maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations.
• High-Strength Material Drilling: Ideal for creating pilot holes or enlarging existing holes in challenging materials such as stainless steel, titanium alloys, Inconel, and other aerospace-grade metals.
• Confined Space Work: Particularly suited for drilling tasks in areas with limited access, thanks to its extended length and secure threaded connection.
• Industrial Metal Fabrication: Utilized in various industrial settings requiring durable and precise drilling into hard metals.
• Tool and Die Making: Supports demanding applications where exact hole dimensions and material integrity are critical.

Benefits

• Enhanced Durability: The cobalt composition significantly resists abrasive wear and high temperatures, leading to a longer lifespan and fewer bit changes, especially in demanding environments.
• Superior Precision: Delivers accurate #30 diameter holes consistently, critical for ensuring proper fastener fit and structural integrity in aerospace applications.
• Unrivaled Accessibility: Its extended length enables technicians to efficiently perform drilling operations in deep recesses or tight angles that standard drills cannot reach.
• Secure and Stable Drilling: The threaded shank provides a robust, anti-slip connection to drilling equipment, improving operational safety and maintaining concentricity for cleaner, more uniform holes.
• Increased Productivity: Efficient material removal and robust construction allow for higher feed rates and reduced drilling time, enhancing overall operational efficiency.
