The Dormer Pramet A242 center drill is a double-ended, long-series metric tool designed to create precise centre holes in shafts for secure holding. It’s aimed at machinists and metalworkers who need dependable reach and repeatable centering in a compact form.

  • Diameter x length: 2.50 mm x 8.00 mm for accurate, shallow-to-medium center holes
  • Center geometry: 118° pilot with a 60° cone to produce true centre holes and clean exits
  • Finish: Bright finish helps prevent material from sticking to the cutting edge
  • Double-ended design: Two drilling ends provide increased productivity and economy
  • Material: Premium HSS-E for reliable drilling across steel, aluminium, and stainless steel
  • Long-series reach: Extended length enables use in applications requiring greater reach

This center drill supports consistent centering before final drilling or tapping, reducing setup time and improving hole accuracy. Its robust HSS-E construction stands up to repeated use across common metals, making it a practical choice for workshops that value efficiency and dependable performance.
