    Center Drills

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Center Drills. Center Drills.
    Create precisely centered holes that mate with lathe centers or drill and countersink in a single step to install fasteners.
    Carbide
    The hardest and most wear-resistant center drills you can buy. They stay sharp at high temperatures and faster speeds for the best performance on hard and difficult-to-machine materials. They last 10 to 20 times longer than their closest alternative, cobalt steel. Carbide can be brittle, however, so use a rigid machine tool holder to prevent breakage.
    60° Countersink Angle—The most common center drill angle. The short and sturdy tip starts holes that perfectly match lathe centers.
    82° Countersink Angle—Start a hole with cone-shaped recesses so inch screws sit flush with the surface.
    90° Countersink Angle—Start a hole with cone-shaped recesses so metric screws sit flush with the surface.
    Titanium Carbon Nitride (TiCN) Coated—Resist heat, chipping, and wear, to last up to three times longer than an uncoated option.
