Made in USA
Carbide straight flute drill bits are engineered for maximum rigidity and control when drilling extremely hard or work-hardened materials. The straight flute geometry reduces deflection and chatter, maintains cutting edge strength, and prevents grabbing or walking when drilling broken bolts, hardened fasteners, and high-alloy steels—delivering reliable performance where HSS and cobalt drills fail.
Why These Win
- Sub-micron solid carbide construction for extreme wear resistance
- Straight flute design = maximum rigidity, zero grabbing
- Reamer-quality hole finish in hardened materials
- 140° split point for accurate starts without wandering
- Made in USA – built for real machining, not disposable use
Built for Extreme Materials
Designed to cut:
- Work-hardened steels (42–65 Rc)
- Stainless steel weldments
- Chrome, nickel, and heat-resistant alloys
- Titanium and high-strength alloys
- Broken bolts, studs, and fasteners
- Seized or snapped easy-outs / extractors
Performance Specs
- Micro-hardness: 3600 Vickers
- Thermal Stability: 750°C (1562°F)
- Coefficient of Friction: 0.45
- Oxidation Resistance: Built for high-temperature cutting environments
Where These Dominate
When you’re drilling:
- Broken exhaust manifold bolts
- Hardened studs that laugh at cobalt
- Snapped extractors (easy-outs)
- Welded or work-hardened material
This is the tool you reach for when nothing else is working.
