Dormer Pramet R457 5/8 Inch CARBIDE TIALN FORCE-X STEPPED SHANK COOLANT FEED SHORT SERIES (X3D) DRILL DIN 6537 K

Dormer Pramet R457 5/8 Inch Carbide Drill from the FORCE-X Short Series combines premium carbide with a through-coolant design to deliver reliable, high-precision drilling in a compact package. Built for engineers, machinists, and tradespeople alike, this drill is ideal for production environments or workshop projects where fast, accurate holes matter. The 5/8" diameter and DIN 6537 K shank ensure compatibility with standard tooling, and the short-series form helps maintain rigidity in tight spaces.

Featuring a 140° four-facet split point, this drill self-centers at the start of each hole and reduces push force for easier starting and cleaner entry, even on tougher materials.

• Self-centering 140° 4-facet point: Starts holes with minimal wandering and lowers the effort required to begin drilling, improving first-pass quality.
• TiAlN coating for longer life: Titanium Aluminium Nitride coating extends tool life and enhances performance when drilling harder materials like stainless steel and alloys, reducing tool changes.
• CTW flute design with coolant feed: Enhanced strength and the ability to run at higher speeds and feeds, with efficient chip evacuation and better heat management for consistent results.

This high-performance carbide drill handles a wide range of materials—including steel, aluminum, and stainless steel—while delivering high-quality, accurate holes at elevated speeds and feeds (h9 hole tolerance). The through-coolant capability and robust design minimize downtime and provide dependable results across demanding applications, from precision fabrication to busy production environments.
