Saber 1/2" (12.7mm) TiN Coated M2-HSS Jobber Drill
Available
Saber TiN coated jobber drill bits are M2-HSS twist drills for tradespeople, fabricators, maintenance fitters, panel beaters and apprentices who drill steel. Pick your size from 29 fractional sizes between 1/16" (1.59mm) and 1/2" (12.7mm). They are the same drills sold in the 8011 hang-sell clam shells.
A jobber drill is the standard length twist drill used in most workshops. M2-HSS is a high speed steel grade. The gold finish is TiN (titanium nitride), a hard coating put on by Physical Vapour Deposition. It dissipates heat, reduces friction and cold welding, allows higher speed and feed rates and greatly increases tool life. The 135° split point centres itself and gets into the cut quickly. This point suits harder steel, especially deep holes. Choose the Saber 8003 bright drills for general work and non-ferrous metals. Note that the coating wears off when resharpened, so performance drops after regrinding.
Where this product is used
- Drilling harder steel, including deep holes
- Drilling at higher speeds and feeds than an uncoated drill
Features
- M2-HSS jobber drill with a gold finish TiN (titanium nitride) coating
- TiN coating helps dissipate heat and reduces friction and cold welding
- Higher speed and feed rates can be achieved and tool life is greatly increased
- 135° split point (crankshaft point) is self centering and gets into the cut faster, reducing end thrust
- 135° point suits harder steel, especially deep hole applications
- 29 sizes from 1/16" (1.59mm) to 1/2" (12.7mm)
- Flute length runs from 22mm to 114mm and overall length from 48mm to 152mm across the range
- Made to ANSI B94-11
- Performance deteriorates after resharpening, as with all surface coated tools
