Take advantage of a robust HSS‑Co construction and the standardised DIN 333 Form A geometry to produce repeatable, accurate centre bores in high-strength and stainless steels; order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the Metav team for technical advice.

Centre drill DIN 333 Form A D 1.6 mm HSS‑Co – right‑hand, 60° (TECWERK)

A centre drill DIN 333 Form A D 1.6 mm HSS‑Co for reliable centring and short pilot holes when working with high‑strength and stainless CrNi steels

• HSS‑Co for high wear resistance
• DIN 333 Form A geometry, 60° countersink
• Suitable for steels >800 N/mm² and CrNi steels
• Feed 0.02 mm/rev in steel up to 800 N/mm²

Accurate centring in demanding materials

The tool is designed to create precise centre holes in components where concentricity is critical. The DIN 333 Form A profile combined with a 60° countersink produces defined seating for subsequent turning or drilling operations, reducing the need for rework. Made from HSS‑Co, the drill maintains edge integrity when encountering hard or alloyed steels, making it a practical choice for workshops and production lines that handle components with tensile strengths above 800 N/mm².

Engineered for durability and consistent results

Constructed from a cobalt‑alloyed high‑speed steel, this centre drill offers elevated heat resistance and prolonged cutting life compared with standard HSS. The right‑hand cutting geometry ensures predictable chip formation and stable starting behaviour, while the material choice supports repeated use in tougher alloys, including CrNi stainless and acid‑resistant grades. The result is fewer tool changes and a more consistent production output.

Optimised feed and process efficiency

A specified feed of 0.02 mm/rev in steel up to 800 N/mm² provides a clear starting point for setting up automated or manual machining processes. This rating helps planners and operators calculate cycle times and tool life, improving throughput without compromising accuracy. The compact 1.6 mm diameter and standardised form simplify integration into existing toolholders and centring sequences, contributing to faster setup and reduced machine idle time.

Standard form for straightforward procurement and maintenance

Using a standardised DIN profile ensures interchangeability and easier stock management. The Form A geometry aligns with industry norms for centring to DIN 332 without additional pilot countersinking, which streamlines process planning. Specifying a recognised standard and a clear feed parameter reduces ambiguity in procurement and maintenance documentation, supporting predictable supply and reliable replacement across the workshop.

FAQ

What materials is this centre drill suitable for? This TECWERK centre drill (SKU 2000861579NW) is specified for machining materials with tensile strength above 800 N/mm² and for CrNi stainless steels, including acid‑ and heat‑resistant grades.

What is the standard angle and why does it matter? The 60° countersink produces a standardised seating for centre bores, improving concentricity for subsequent operations and ensuring compatibility with typical lathe centres.

How should the feed be set for steel? For steels up to 800 N/mm² the recommended feed is 0.02 mm/rev, which balances cutting action and tool life for consistent results.

Is the geometry compatible with standard centring procedures? Yes — the Form A profile complies with DIN 333 and is intended to produce centre holes according to DIN 332 without additional pilot countersinking, simplifying process planning.
