Dormer Pramet A976 2.00 mm HSS-E HIGH PERF MULT-APP STRAIGHT SHANK EXTRA LONG SERIES (1) DRILL DIN 1869 / 1

The Dormer Pramet A976 2.00 mm HSS-E High-Performance Multi-Application Straight Shank Extra Long Series drill is purpose-built for precision, depth, and versatility. Designed to conquer challenging deep-hole tasks, this drill combines a thoughtful geometry with tough materials to deliver reliable performance across a range of applications.

Key features that drive real-world results

130° point promotes quick self-centering entry and reduces the push force required, helping you start holes cleanly without wandering on difficult surfaces.

Bright finish minimizes material adhesion on the cutting edge, reducing built-up edges and ensuring smoother penetration from the first cut to the last.

Parabolic flute design is optimized for deep-hole drilling, facilitating efficient chip evacuation and maintaining drill stability in lengthy holes—often a single-pass solution for substantial depths.

Premium HSS-E material delivers robust performance on steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, providing a dependable mix of hardness, toughness, and wear resistance for demanding manufacturing environments.

Extra-long length is engineered for extended reach, making this drill ideal for applications where standard-length tools fall short—think automotive housings, mold cavities, and aerospace components where deep access matters.

DIN 1869 compatibility ensures reliable fit within common chucks and holders, streamlining integration into existing tool kits and CNC setups.

Who benefits most

• Machinists and fabricators performing deep-hole drilling in steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
• Manufacturers needing one tool that handles multiple materials and achieves depth in a single pass.
• Workshop setups where extended reach reduces tool changes and cycle times.

Practical usage and tips

• Pair with appropriate lubrication and steady feeds to maximize tool life and hole accuracy, especially in harder alloys.
• Maintain a consistent spindle speed; slower feeds on tougher materials help prevent heat buildup and edge wear.
• Securely clamp workpieces to minimize deflection; the 130° point aids initial alignment, but rigid workholding keeps holes true at depth.
