Dormer Pramet A122 12.00 mm x 120 HSS STRAIGHT SHANK SPOTTING DRILL DIN 1897

The Dormer Pramet A122 spotting drill is a 12.00 mm diameter HSS tool with a straight shank, designed for accurate hole starts. With a 120 mm overall length and a DIN 1897 shank, it fits standard drill chucks and machines, making it a reliable choice for general machining tasks. This versatile drill is suitable for spotting and pre-spotting holes across common materials, helping you set up holes quickly and precisely.

Two practical point geometries expand its use on the shop floor: a 90° conventional point for precise starting holes and a 90° chamfer, and a 120° conventional point for pre-spotting holes to be drilled with standard 118° drills. The bright finish helps prevent workpiece material from sticking to the cutting edge, aiding chip flow and reducing built-up edge. The short, rigid design enhances centering and accuracy, improving repeatability across multiple parts.

• 90° conventional spotting point: provides a precise starting hole and clean chamfer, reducing wandering at entry and improving overall hole location.
• 120° conventional spotting for pre-spotting: guides subsequent drilling with standard 118° drills, ensuring accurate alignment before the main hole is cut.
• Short, rigid design: improves centering and accuracy, delivering repeatable hole locations even in busy production environments.

This spotting drill helps you speed up setup, minimize mis-drills, and achieve consistent hole quality across steel, stainless steel, aluminium, and cast iron. Built for daily shop use, its HSS construction and DIN 1897 straight shank ensure dependable performance, while the bright finish supports smooth cutting and easier cleanup between jobs.
