Dormer Pramet A122 8.00 mm x 90 HSS STRAIGHT SHANK SPOTTING DRILL DIN 1897

The Dormer Pramet A122 8.0 mm spotting drill is a versatile, high-precision tool designed to start holes with confidence. With a straight High-Speed Steel (HSS) shank and DIN 1897 compliance, it fits standard drilling setups and is suitable for a wide range of materials, including steel, stainless steel, aluminum and cast iron. Its compact, short rigid design helps you center quickly and maintain accuracy during the initial drilling pass.

This drill features dual-point geometry for flexible spotting: a 90-degree conventional point for precise spotting (including chamfering) and a 120-degree conventional point for pre-spotting holes intended for subsequent drilling with standard 118-degree drills. The bright finish reduces material sticking to the cutting edge, promoting cleaner starts and easier tool life management.

• Dual-point geometry for versatile spotting: Switch between a 90-degree point for accurate spotting and chamfering, or a 120-degree point for pre-spotting for 118-degree drills, enabling clean starts on a variety of hole sizes.
• Bright finish reduces material sticking: The bright surface minimizes built-up edge and chip adhesion, helping maintain a sharp cut and smoother operation.
• Short, rigid straight shank for centering and accuracy: A compact, rigid shank delivers stable alignment and reduced deflection, improving first-pass accuracy in challenging workpieces.

This spotting drill helps you start holes with confidence, reducing wandering and rework. With an 8.0 mm diameter, HSS construction, and straight shank, it delivers reliable performance across common materials—steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and cast iron. By enabling precise spotting and clean chamfers from the first pass, it speeds up setup, lowers downtime, and enhances overall drilling quality in everyday workflows.
