Zentrierbohrer DIN 333 Form A Ø 1.6 mm – solid carbide, 60° countersink (TECWERK)

A Zentrierbohrer DIN 333 Form A Ø 1.6 mm centre drill for making standard-compliant centring holes, suitable for demanding workshop and industrial applications

• Solid carbide construction (VHM)
• DIN 333 Form A geometry
• 60° countersink angle for DIN 332 holes
• Suitable for high‑strength steels and plastics

Accurate centring that protects subsequent drilling

A correctly executed centre hole ensures concentricity and reduces tool wear in subsequent operations. This centre drill with DIN 333 geometry and Ø 1.6 mm diameter defines the axis for later drills or reamers and prevents walking on hard or cast surfaces. The integrated 60° countersink matches the standard angle of DIN 332, creating a clean seating for lathe centres and drill points. By establishing a precise start, the tool contributes directly to fewer rejects and improved cycle stability on production machines.

Material compatibility and consistent cutting performance

Manufactured from solid carbide (VHM) and designed as a right‑hand cutting tool, the centring drill is specified for a wide spectrum of materials: high‑strength steels, steel castings, grey and hard cast iron, manganese‑hard steels, CrNi alloys, light and non‑ferrous metals, as well as fibre‑reinforced plastics and other duroplasts. The recommended feed in steel up to 800 N is 0.09 mm/rev, which balances penetration and edge life for demanding conditions. This combination of material and geometry provides predictable wear characteristics and repeatable results in batch runs.

Practical handling and workshop benefits

The tool arrives as a single unit for straightforward stock management and is ready for mounting in standard toolholders or chucks. Absence of a protective countersink (no pilot countersink) reduces unnecessary machining steps when a plain, standard seating is required. With its compact diameter and robust carbide body, the drill reduces the risk of chatter and radial runout, supporting faster set‑ups and dependable centring across varied components. The construction favours longevity under consistent operating conditions, lowering replacement frequency and unplanned downtime.

FAQ

What is the intended purpose of this centring drill?
The centring drill is designed to produce standard‑compliant centre holes (matching DIN 332) that guide subsequent drilling and turning operations, improving concentricity and reducing tool deviation.

Which materials can be machined with this tool?
This TECWERK centre drill is suitable for a broad range of materials including high‑strength steels, steel castings, various forms of cast iron, CrNi alloys, light metals and fibre‑reinforced plastics, as specified in the product data.

What cutting data should be observed for steel?
For steel up to 800 N, use a feed of 0.09 mm/rev as indicated; this provides a balance between edge life and penetration for the solid carbide tool.

Does the drill include a pilot or protective countersink?
The tool is supplied without a protective countersink (no pilot countersink); it is intended to produce a clear 60° seating for centres in accordance with DIN 332.

How is the geometry specified and why is it important?
The geometry follows DIN 333 Form A, which ensures the correct profile for centre holes; this standardised shape delivers reliable seating and repeatable positioning for downstream operations.
