Dormer Pramet A976 13.00 mm HSS-E HIGH PERF MULT-APP STRAIGHT SHANK EXTRA LONG SERIES (1) DRILL DIN 1869 / 1

The Dormer Pramet A976 13.00 mm HSS-E High-Performance Multi-Application Straight Shank Extra Long Drill is purpose-built for precision, reach, and versatility in demanding materials. With its DIN 1869 standard, this drill is a reliable choice for serious shop floors, engineering labs, and professional fabrication environments where deep holes and consistent results matter.

• 130-degree point promotes self-centering and reduces push force, helping you start holes cleanly and reduce drift in challenging workpieces.
• Bright finish minimizes chip welding and ensures the cutting edge remains exposed, improving lubricity and reducing workpiece material sticking to the edge.
• Parabolic flute design is optimized for drilling extra-deep holes in a single pass, cutting setup time and boosting throughput on long hole applications.
• Premium HSS-E material delivers durability and heat resistance, suitable for drilling a wide range of materials including steel, aluminium, and stainless steel.
• Extra-long length series provides extended reach for deep cavities, through-holes, and applications where standard drills simply can’t access the target area.
• Straight shank ensures reliable clamping and repeatable torque transfer in a variety of toolholding systems.
• DIN 1869 / 1 compatibility means you can rely on consistent geometry and interchangeability with compatible tooling ecosystems.

Who benefits most from the A976 13.00 mm drill? machinists, mechanical engineers, and fabrication specialists who routinely work with thick or recessed workpieces, deep drilled features, or materials that demand a robust, high-precision drill bite. It’s ideal for automotive components, machinery housings, aerospace fixtures, and general manufacturing where hole depth and accuracy drive assembly quality.

Practical use notes to maximize performance:

• Pair with appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant for longer tool life and smoother cutting in stainless steel or hardened metals.
• Use moderate spindle speeds and steady feeds to leverage the 130-degree point’s self-centering benefits.
• When drilling very deep holes, maintain a consistent chip evacuation path to prevent clogging and overheating.
• Inspect the flute for wear and replace promptly to preserve hole accuracy and surface finish.

In short, the Dormer Pramet A976 drill is a specialized solution for deep-hole work across multiple materials, delivering accurate starts, manageable drilling forces, and the reach you need for complex assemblies. If your projects demand long, straight-hole drilling with dependable performance from a single tool, this 13.00 mm HSS-E drill is made to deliver.
