About this item

  • High-speed steel tools are good for most general purpose applications, offering a combination of hardness and toughness for wear resistance
  • Titanium nitride coatings add a hard layer of gold-colored ceramic to the surface that extends tool life and permits faster cutting speeds than uncoated tools
  • Round shanks allow use with a wide variety of toolholding systems
  • When run in a counterclockwise direction (right-hand cut) spiral fluted tools evacuate chips up and out of the cut to reduce clogging
  • 0.3125-inches thread length

Couldn't find this locally and needed it in a hurry so I ordered and got it in 2 days. Using it on a CNC and ran about 250 holes thus far. Works as expected and still cuts well. For the price, how quickly I got it, and the fact that it did the job without issue... it's a winner.
