1mm Centre Drill DIN 333 Form A 60° Point HSS Right-Hand Cutting - TECWERK

Combining HSS durability with the standardised DIN 333 Form A geometry and a precise 60° point angle ensures reliable centre holes for repeatable turning and drilling operations; order the centre drill directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our specialists for application advice.

TECWERK Centre Drill DIN 333 Form A · 1 mm · HSS · 60°

The TECWERK centre drill DIN 333 Form A 1 mm is engineered for accurate centre-hole creation in conventional workshop and production environments, compatible with DIN 332 locating requirements.

• HSS construction for workshop durability
• DIN 333 Form A geometry with 60° point
• Right-hand cutting for standard machines

Accurate locating for dependable turning starts

The defined 60° point angle and DIN 333 Form A profile deliver consistent, concentric centre holes that comply with DIN 332 guidelines. This geometry prevents wobble at the start of turning and drilling cycles, improving concentricity and reducing scrap rates. By favouring a standardised profile, the tool supports predictable machining outcomes and easier integration into existing set-ups, allowing technicians to rely on reproducible results when positioning workpieces for subsequent operations.

Material choice that balances toughness and precision

Manufactured from HSS (high-speed steel), the drill provides a temperature-resistant cutting edge suited to general-purpose workshop tasks. The material selection combines edge stability with ease of resharpening in most cases, which extends service life under routine use. For mild to medium-strength steels with cutting forces up to the specified range, the recommended feed of 0.02 mm/rev in steel up to 800 N helps maintain clean cutting and limits premature wear, ensuring the tool sustains dimensional accuracy over a sequence of holes.

Practical geometry and cutting direction for everyday use

The right-hand cutting configuration and classic centre-drill shape are designed for everyday machines such as lathes and drill presses. The short, rigid design reduces chattering at high spindle speeds and improves hole position accuracy compared with longer, flexible tools. Where a pilot-free centre hole is required in line with DIN 332, this tool creates a reliable seat for live centres or centres for turning, simplifying set-up and reducing the need for additional preparation operations.

Workflow benefits and handling in the workshop

Suppliers value tools that slot straight into the workflow; this centre drill supports fast changeovers and predictable hole quality, contributing to shorter cycle times and fewer adjustments at the machine. The compact geometry aids chip evacuation and lowers the risk of snagging when starting a hole, which is especially useful in small-batch production or mixed-shop environments. For teams seeking consistent starts and repeatable performance, this design reduces downtime associated with rework and measurement checks.

FAQ

What materials is this centre drill suitable for?
The TECWERK centre drill is made from HSS and is intended for general workshop materials; the technical data notes a feed recommendation in steel up to 800 N, making it suitable for common steels and general-purpose applications.

Does the tool comply with a recognised standard for centre holes?
Yes, the tool follows DIN 333 Form A geometry and is specified for producing centre holes in accordance with DIN 332 requirements, ensuring standardised locating features for turning operations.

What spindle direction and machines are compatible with this tool?
Designed as a right-hand cutting centre drill, it is compatible with standard lathes and drill presses that use conventional clockwise spindle rotation for cutting.

Is the 1 mm size suitable for both production and repair tasks?
A 1 mm centre drill provides a precise starting feature for small-diameter centres; it is useful in both small-series production and repair tasks where accurate starting points are required.

Can feeds and speeds be increased for faster machining?
The specified recommendation for steel up to 800 N is 0.02 mm/rev; any deviations should be tested on sample material and adjusted according to machine rigidity and clamping conditions to avoid premature tool wear.
