Dormer Pramet A977 2.00 mm HSS-E HIGH PERF MULT-APP STRAIGHT SHANK EXTRA LONG SERIES (2) DRILL DIN 1869 / 2

Meet the Dormer Pramet A977 2.00 mm HSS-E High-Perf Multi-Application Straight Shank Extra Long Drill (DIN 1869/2). Designed for precision, versatility, and reach, this drill is built to tackle demanding holes with reliability in metalworking, fabrication, and maintenance shops.

• 130° point geometry promotes self-centering accuracy and lowers the pushing force required to start a cut, reducing wander on hard or reactive materials.
• Bright, corrosion-resistant finish minimizes chip adhesion and edge fouling, keeping cutting edges clear for consistent performance.
• Parabolic flute design tailored for deep-hole drilling in a single pass, enabling deep bores without frequent pecking or tool changes.
• Premium HSS-E material delivers enhanced wear resistance and toughness, suitable for drilling steel, aluminum, and stainless steel while maintaining precision over long cycles.
• Extra-long length series provides extended reach for deep or recessed holes, long bores, and applications where standard drills can’t access the target area.
• Straight shank compatible with most benchtop and CNC chucks and collets, ensuring secure grip and minimal runout.
• DIN 1869 / 2 specification ensures standardized interchangeability with compatible tooling systems for consistent performance across setups.
• Diameter of 2.00 mm makes it ideal for precision features, small through-holes, and fine-toleranced workpieces.

Who benefits most from the A977 2.00 mm drill? professionals performing precision metal fabrication, toolmakers refining small bore tolerances, and maintenance technicians needing reliable deep-hole capability in steel, aluminum, or stainless steel. When you’re drilling long channels, blind holes, or workpieces with restricted access, this drill’s extra length and optimized geometry reduce cycle times and tool changes, boosting productivity without sacrificing accuracy.

Practical usage tips for optimal results:

• Use steady, moderate feeds and light lubrication to maintain a clean cutting edge, especially when starting holes in tough materials.
• Let the parabolic flute handle chips efficiently—avoid aggressive peck drilling; let the drill do the depth work in a controlled, continuous pass when possible.
• Pair with a compatible chuck/clamp to minimize runout and maximize straightness on long bores.
• Coolant or cutting oil can extend tool life during stainless steel drilling and help prevent workpiece sticking at the edge.
