Precision-max Step Point 13.0mm Hss Drill Ind. 1pce

Features

• 13.0 mm diameter — ideal for clearance holes and mid-sized drilling.
• Step-point geometry — improves centering and reduces runway drift.
• Split point design — lowers thrust and enhances entry quality.
• Fully ground flutes — for efficient chip removal and reduced friction.
• Industrial HSS construction — built for durability under demanding conditions.
• Straight shank — fits standard 3-jaw chucks.

Benefits

• Accurate starts: Combined geometry helps maintain hole alignment even on smooth surfaces.
• Clean holes: Reduced burrs and sharper edges in metals and plastics.
• Reliable build: Robust design suited to machine and workshop use.
• Versatile use: Effective across structural, fabrication, composites and plastics.

Extra Information

• Use cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to reduce wear and melt-down.
• Start with moderate speed and feed; avoid forcing the bit laterally.
• Support thin or flexible materials with backing to prevent burr or exit breakout.
• Retract periodically (peck drilling) in deeper cuts to manage chip accumulation and cooling.

Specifications

Safety

• Wear eye protection — chips or fragments may eject during drilling.
• Secure workpiece firmly — avoid freehand drilling on small parts.
• Use steady feed pressure; avoid lateral force or twist on the bit.
• Manage heat — use coolant or rest periods to protect bit life.
