Carbide Center Drill
A carbide center drill is a specialized cutting tool used to create centering holes, typically a 60-degree cone, on the ends of shafts or workpieces. These drills are made from solid carbide, which provides high hardness, durability, and extended tool life.
- Carbide center drills are primarily used to create a 60-degree conical depression at the end of a workpiece. This cone serves as a guide for a tailstock center on a lathe, ensuring precise alignment and support during machining.
- Starting point for drilling: They also create a precise starting point for a larger drill bit, preventing the drill from "walking" or wandering during drilling.
- Carbide center drills are particularly well-suited for high-volume batch production due to their durability and extended lifespan.
- Hard materials: Their solid carbide construction allows them to be used on difficult-to-drill materials.
COATINGS AVAILABLE
Features:
- Solid carbide construction: This provides high hardness, durability, and resistance to wear, leading to extended tool life.
- 60-degree point: The standard angle of the center drill, matching the angle of lathe centers.
