Centre Drill

Centre Drill is used to create a starting point for drilling operations, ensuring accurate hole positioning and preventing drill bit wandering. Commonly used in lathes and milling machines.

Centre Drill is a specialized cutting tool used in metalworking to create precise pilot holes at the center of a workpiece. These holes act as guides for larger drill bits, ensuring accurate hole alignment and preventing the drill from wandering. Centre drills feature a short, stiff body with a small pilot tip and a larger countersinking section, making them ideal for producing conical holes that can support lathe centers or serve as starting points for deep drilling. Commonly used in turning, milling, and CNC machining operations, centre drills enhance drilling accuracy, improve tool life, and ensure consistent machining results across a variety of materials including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and more.
