The Vortex Centre Drill in HSS with a 60° center point is a precision tool engineered for accurate centre holes in a variety of workpieces. Designed for machinists, metalworkers, and workshop professionals, it delivers reliable starting alignment for subsequent drilling or turning operations.

  • Material: High-speed steel (HSS) for durability and heat resistance during prolonged use.
  • Point angle: 60° center point to deliver a precise, self-centering starting hole and reduce wandering.
  • Standard: British Standard BS1 compliance for compatibility with common center-drilling setups.
  • Applications: Specifically intended to create accurate centre holes that improve workholding and subsequent machining accuracy.
  • Durability: Robust construction designed to withstand demanding applications in busy workshops.

This centre drill helps you achieve repeatable centering, minimizes drill drift, and provides a solid foundation for further drilling or turning. Its HSS composition handles the heat generated during cutting, helping maintain sharpness and prolonging tool life. Ideal for preparing workpieces for milling, turning, or drilling operations with precision and confidence.
