The IRWIN HSS TCT Tip Drill Bit is engineered for precision drilling in hard materials, offering exceptional performance with stationary machines. Featuring a Tungsten Carbide Tipped (TCT) design, this drill bit is ideal for working with hardened steel, cast iron, bronze alloys, and manganese alloyed steel.
The C2 Carbide Tip can drill through materials up to 50 Rockwell C hardness and is four-facetted ground to reduce drilling pressure and ensure perfect centring. The durable Chrome Vanadium Steel body, hardened to 56 Rockwell C, provides long-lasting strength and resistance.
Usage Recommendations
- For optimal performance, use a 3-6% emulsion coolant during drilling to extend the lifespan of the drill bit.
- Suitable for stationary machinery only—not recommended for hand-held drills.
