The Dormer Pramet A125 13/32" x 250 mm HSS straight shank drill is built for professionals who need deep-hole capabilities without compromising speed or reliability. This extra-long drill bit combines a robust cutting geometry with versatile material compatibility, making it a go-to choice for demanding fabrication, automotive, and maintenance projects.

• 118-degree conventional point for a strong starting bite that centers itself and resists walking. The point is easy to re-grind, so you can refresh sharpness in-house and extend the life of the drill.
• Steam oxide finish minimizes built-up edge and workpiece material sticking to the cutting edge, promoting smoother cutting and easier chip clearance for cleaner holes.
• Extra-long length specifically designed to reach deep holes and navigate tight or recessed work areas where standard bits struggle. Ideal for pocketed components, long through-holes, and structural metal work.
• Premium HSS material delivers dependable performance across a wide range of materials, including steel, aluminum, and stainless steel, making it a versatile addition to any tooling arsenal.
• Straight shank ensures broad compatibility with common drill chucks and drill presses, providing steady accuracy and reduced runout during heavy-duty drilling.
• Model BS 328 designation denotes a precise size and geometry that crafts consistent hole quality, enabling repeatable results across multiple jobs.

Typical use scenarios include drilling deep pilot holes in steel frames, automotive components, and fabrication work where accessibility is limited. This drill bit excels in applications that demand both reach and precision, from maintenance tasks in workshops to detailed fabrication on production lines.

Practical tips for optimal performance: - Use steady cutting pressure and avoid aggressive plunging to preserve the point geometry. - Apply a suitable lubricant or coolant to extend tool life and improve chip evacuation on longer holes. - Regularly inspect the tip for wear and re-grind as needed to maintain a clean, sharp entry.
