Vortex Spot Drill - HSS-E Cobalt 120° Uncoated - 5mm

The Vortex Spot Drill is a precision 5 mm tool designed to deliver exact center holes for reliable pilot starts in metalworking. Built for professionals and serious hobbyists alike, it ensures your subsequent drilling or milling steps stay on track with minimal wandering.

• Diameter: 5 mm for precise, repeatable center starts
• Material: HSS-E cobalt for increased strength and heat resistance during high-speed machining
• Point angle: 120° to produce a clean, accurate center hole and reduce drift
• Coating: Uncoated surface for maximum contact with the workpiece and improved chip evacuation
• Geometry: Spot drill design that creates a true starting point, guiding subsequent drilling or milling
• Durability: Cobalt-infused alloy enhances performance under demanding cutting conditions

Using the Vortex Spot Drill, you create a precise center reference that minimizes drill walk and improves hole alignment from the first cut. The HSS-E cobalt composition provides dependable performance at higher speeds and temperatures, helping extend tool life when working with tougher metals. The uncoated finish supports efficient chip flow and reduces the risk of built-up edge, contributing to cleaner starts and more consistent results across a range of materials, including steel and aluminum. This spot drill is ideal for preparing centers before through-holes, tapping, or finishing passes, making it a dependable addition to any metalworking or CNC setup.
