Dormer Pramet A976 14.00 mm HSS-E HIGH PERF MULT-APP STRAIGHT SHANK EXTRA LONG SERIES (1) DRILL DIN 1869 / 1

Dormer Pramet A976 14.00 mm HSS-E High Performance Multi-Application Straight Shank Extra Long Series (1) Drill DIN 1869

Overview

Designed for professionals who demand depth, precision, and versatility, this 14.00 mm HSS-E drill from Dormer Pramet delivers reliable performance across a wide range of materials. The extra-long series provides outstanding reach for deep bores, while maintaining rigidity and control in demanding drilling tasks.

Why this drill stands out

• 130-degree point — ensures self-centering starts and reduces the push force required, helping you achieve clean holes with less effort and higher accuracy.
• Bright finish — minimizes material adhesion on the cutting edge, enabling smoother cutting and easier chip evacuation.
• Parabolic flute design — optimized for drilling very deep holes in a single pass, improving chip clearance and reducing dwell time.
• Premium HSS-E material — cobalt-enriched steel offers increased wear resistance and toughness, suitable for drilling steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
• Extra-long length series — engineered for applications requiring increased reach, such as long through-bores, deep pockets, and through-holes.
• DIN 1869 compatibility — designed to fit standard chucks and holders, ensuring dependable, repeatable performance in common machining setups.

Ideal use cases

Perfect for workshops and production floors where deep hole drilling is routine. Use in automotive components, aerospace fixtures, machinery frames, and general engineering tasks where prolonged reach and consistent hole quality are essential. The multi-application design makes it a reliable all-in-one choice for drilling through steel, stainless steel, and aluminum without swapping tools.

Practical tips for best results

• For aluminum and softer steels, apply a light cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tool life.
• Maintain steady feeds to capitalize on the 130-degree point’s self-centering action and avoid deflection in long bores.
• Clamp the workpiece securely and use appropriate thrust to prevent chatter when drilling at maximum reach.
• Start with a light pilot hole if an exact center is required before engaging the full 14.00 mm diameter.
• Match RPM to material and drill length to optimize wear resistance and surface finish.
