3/16 LONG COBALT THREADED - Brown Aviation Tool

The Brown Aviation Tool BAT31193 3/16 Long Cobalt Threaded Drill Bit is engineered for professional technicians and mechanics tackling the most demanding drilling tasks. Crafted from high-grade cobalt steel, this threaded shank drill bit offers exceptional durability and heat resistance, ensuring extended tool life and superior performance in hard-to-reach areas and challenging materials. Its specialized design makes it an indispensable tool for precision work in both automotive and industrial applications.

Key Features

• Premium Cobalt Construction: Manufactured from industrial-grade cobalt steel, providing superior hardness and heat resistance for a significantly longer tool life compared to standard high-speed steel bits.
• Optimized for Hard Materials: Specifically designed to drill through tough, high tensile strength materials such as stainless steel, titanium alloys, hardened tool steel, cast iron, and high-strength composites.
• Threaded Shank Design: Features an industry-standard 1/4"-28 threaded shank, ensuring a secure fit in compatible threaded adapters and minimizing slippage during high-speed drilling operations.
• Precision 135° Split Point: The 135-degree split point penetrates on contact, preventing "walking" and allowing for accurate, clean starts without the need for a pilot hole.
• Extended Reach: The "long" form factor provides the necessary reach for drilling in confined spaces and tight angles where conventional drill bits may not fit.
• Professional Grade: Produced to stringent standards like NAS 965 Type D, affirming its professional-grade quality and reliability for critical tasks.

Applications

This 3/16 long cobalt threaded drill bit is a crucial asset for various professional applications. It is widely utilized in aircraft maintenance for structural repairs, fastener installations, and component replacements, where precision and material integrity are paramount. Automotive technicians will find it effective for drilling pilot holes in structural steel, sheet metal fabrication, and mounting brackets, especially when working with modern vehicles incorporating advanced high-strength steels. Its robust construction also makes it suitable for demanding tasks in general industrial settings, marine applications, and any scenario requiring reliable drilling in hard or abrasive materials.
