Europa Tools Long Series Drill - HSS CO8 - Straw Coated - 3.1mm

Europa Tools Long Series Drill - HSS CO8 - Straw Coated - 3.1mm is designed for serious metalworking where depth, precision, and durability matter. Crafted from premium HSS CO8 and finished with a distinctive straw coating, this drill bit pair your cutting power with exceptional heat resistance so you can push through tougher materials without dulling quickly.

The long series geometry delivers extended reach for deep holes and hard‑to‑access work areas. Whether you’re drilling through brackets, engine components, or dense metal stock, this drill maintains a steady, accurate path from start to exit, reducing wandering and improving thru-holes in tight spaces.

Why HSS CO8 matters – This cobalt-enriched high-speed steel combines the hardness of traditional HSS with enhanced heat tolerance. That means cleaner cuts and longer edge life when you’re drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, or other challenging alloys. The 3.1mm diameter is ideal for precise pilot holes, fixture work, and projects that demand tight tolerances.

The straw-coated finish isn’t just a visual detail. The coating reduces friction, discourages built‑up edge, and helps dissipate heat during sustained cutting. The result is smoother chip evacuation, better hole quality, and improved tool life under demanding cycles.

Designed for both professionals and serious hobbyists, this drill bit shines in setups where depth and control are essential. Use it with a drill press or a high‑quality handheld drill that accepts standard mini‑drill bits, and pair it with appropriate cutting fluid or oil when drilling metals to maximize life and performance.
