Product Specifications:
This AlTiN‑coated solid carbide drill bit offers an excellent balance between reach and rigidity with its 5×D flute length (40mm). The 8mm diameter and 72mm overall length make it a versatile tool for drilling moderate‑depth holes in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, and cast iron. The AlTiN coating (bronze) provides high heat resistance (up to 800°C) and low friction, significantly extending tool life compared to uncoated carbide.
The 140° point angle reduces cutting forces on entry and minimizes work hardening – particularly beneficial for stainless steel and high‑temperature alloys. With a recommended cutting speed of 60‑100 m/min and feed of 0.12‑0.20 mm/rev, this drill performs well on CNC machining centers and milling machines. While it does not feature through‑coolant holes, the 30° helix and polished flutes effectively evacuate chips when used with high‑pressure external coolant or mist.
Applications include automotive components, hydraulic parts, mold bases, and general engineering. The 5×D flute length allows drilling depths up to 36mm (4.5×D) without pecking in most materials – a good compromise between jobber drills (shorter) and extended‑length drills. Custom diameters (3‑12mm) and alternative coatings (TiN, DLC) are available for OEM orders. Upgrade your hole‑making productivity with this durable, precision‑ground carbide drill.
