Europa Tools Slot Drill - HSS-E 8% Cobalt - 2 Flute Extra Long Series Uncoated -16mm

The Europa Tools Slot Drill (16 mm, HSS-E with 8% cobalt) is built for precision slot milling in demanding materials, delivering depth, rigidity, and long tool life for professionals and serious hobbyists alike.

• Diameter: 16 mm
• Flutes: 2-flute design for efficient material removal and clear chip paths
• Length: Extra-long series length for deep slots and hard-to-reach profiles
• Material: HSS-E with 8% cobalt for improved heat resistance and wear life
• Coating: Uncoated surface for smoother chip evacuation and reduced friction
• Stability: Enhanced rigidity with minimized deflection for accurate cuts in challenging areas

Designed to tackle deep or intricate slots, this tool maintains precise width and depth even under high cutting loads. The 8% cobalt composition makes it more heat resistant than standard high-speed steel, extending life when cutting stainless steel, alloy steels, and similar materials. The extra-long reach lets you access deep channels, pockets, and internal slots without repositioning the workpiece. The 2-flute geometry provides efficient chip evacuation, reducing built-up edge and improving surface finish. With an uncoated finish, heat generation is managed through better chip flow and lower friction, helping you achieve cleaner cuts and longer tool life. Suitable for both CNC and manual milling setups. Use with appropriate speeds and feeds per material to optimize finish and tool longevity.
