■  Features and Applications ● NEW Inch sizes added for MDF □□□□ H3D (see pages J54-J57) ● Suited to various types of drilling thanks to a point angle of 180° Can be used for high-efficiency spot facing, drilling in non-horizontal surfaces such as inclined and cylindrical surfaces, and interrupted drilling. Also reduces burrs at the hole exit. ● Improves machining stability Achieves high rigidity by employing RS THINNING, which provides a thick web at the bottom. ● Excellent chip evacuation Achieves excellent chip evacuation due to the wide chip pocket and high-quality rake face shape. ● Excellent cutting edge strength Achieves excellent cutting edge strength through optimized cutting edge design. ● Long types available Overhang lengths up to L/D=10 are now available. ● Types with oil hole available Coolant can now be supplied internally. This enables deeper drilling.
