NC spot drill D16 mm HSS‑Co, 120° tip – TECWERK (DIN 1835‑A)

A NC spot drill D16 mm HSS‑Co engineered for accurate pre‑drilling, centring and chamfering in a single pass on NC machines and boring mills

• HSS‑Co for improved wear resistance and longevity
• 120° tip for secure centring and reliable chamfering
• Cylindrical shank to DIN 1835‑A for secure toolholder fit
• Tolerance h8 for consistent hole positioning

Precision starts the machining process right

Accurate pre‑drilling is essential for repeatable, high‑quality results on automated equipment. The HSS‑Co composition provides elevated hardness and thermal stability compared with standard high‑speed steels, which translates into longer tool life under cyclic drilling operations. With a 16 mm diameter and a 120° tip, this spot drill secures a reliable centre and produces a defined chamfer, reducing the need for secondary operations. The tool’s construction supports consistent chip formation and stable cutting forces, which helps to maintain positional accuracy on multi‑axis NC machines.

Designed for efficient NC production workflows

A spot drill that is optimised for NC and boring mill environments reduces cycle time and handling. The cylindrical shank, made to DIN 1835‑A, ensures rigid clamping in standard holders and contributes to precise axial alignment. The tool is right‑hand cutting, suitable for conventional spindle rotations, and offers a recommended feed in steel up to 800 N of 0.11 mm/rev, enabling controlled material engagement during the plunge. These characteristics make the drill a practical choice for jobs that demand both quick locating and the option to proceed directly to thread tapping without additional setup.

Shop‑floor compatibility and machining clarity

Practical integration into existing toolsets is straightforward because the geometry and shank standard follow widely accepted industry norms. The h8 tolerance on the diameter supports interchangeability and repeatability when used in automated tool changers. Operators and process engineers benefit from predictable seating and centring, while the combined centring and chamfering function reduces tool counts and handling. For teams transitioning programmes between machines or scaling small production runs, this spot drill aids in shortening set‑up times and ensuring uniform hole starts across batches.

FAQ

What machines is this spot drill suitable for?
The TECWERK NC spot drill D16 mm HSS‑Co is intended for use on NC machines and boring mills where precise pre‑drilling and centring are required.

Can this tool be used to prepare holes for thread tapping?
Yes, the geometry of the spot drill allows centring and chamfering of threaded holes in a single operation, streamlining subsequent tapping processes.

What shank standard does the drill use and how does that affect toolholding?
The drill features a cylindrical shank to DIN 1835‑A, which ensures secure seating in compatible toolholders and supports repeatable axial alignment.

Which feed rate is recommended for steel?
For steel with cutting conditions up to 800 N, a feed of approximately 0.11 mm/rev is indicated for controlled engagement.

Does the 120° tip influence hole quality?
The 120° tip enhances centring accuracy and produces a clean chamfer, improving initial hole definition and reducing tool wander at plunge.
