Irwin 10502651 HSS TCT Tip Drill Bit 6.0 mm

The IRWIN HSS TCT Tip Drill Bit is designed for precision drilling in hard materials such as hardened steel, cast iron, bronze alloys, and manganese alloyed steel. It features a tungsten carbide (TCT) tip capable of cutting materials up to 50 HRC, with a chrome-vanadium steel body for durability. The bit is four-facet ground to promote low drilling pressure and accurate centering. With a diameter of 6.0 mm and a total length of 93 mm (working length 57 mm), it is suitable for use in standard drill chucks and stationary drilling setups. A coolant is recommended to extend tool life, typically a 3-6% emulsion. These characteristics make it a robust option for demanding drilling tasks requiring precision and efficiency.
