The 3-flute geometry strikes a balance between aggressive material removal and a clean edge, making it well-suited for slotting and contouring in moderate to tough metals. The long-series design provides extended reach for deeper slots and wider shoulders, while the cobalt-based HSS-E construction extends tool life when cutting challenging workpieces. A flatted shank helps secure the tool in holders, reducing runout and enhancing stability during high-speed milling. Compatible with standard DIN 844 L tool holders, this drill offers reliable interchangeability in busy fabrication environments. Ideal for shops seeking durable, precision-slotting performance on free-machining steel and copper alloys.
