Centering drill bit Cimco 201614

The Cimco 201614 centering drill bit is a precision tool designed for creating accurate pilot holes with a 6 mm diameter. Manufactured for consistent centring performance, this single-piece drill bit minimises radial runout and helps prevent the drill from wandering on flat or curved surfaces. It is suitable for use in a variety of materials where an initial, well-located hole is required before final drilling or fastening.

Advantages

This centering drill bit offers stable guidance and precise start points, improving hole location accuracy and reducing rework. Its single-piece construction provides structural rigidity and durability during repeated use. The 6 mm working diameter makes it a practical choice for many common pilot hole applications, combining straightforward handling with reliable results.

Подходит для

• создания направляющих или направляющих отверстий перед сверлением больших диаметров
• работ по металлу, пластику и мягким древесным материалам
• использования в ручных дрелях, сверлильных станках и стойках

Key specifications

• Working diameter: 6 mm
• Single-piece construction for rigidity
• Designed for centring and initiating pilot holes
• Suitable for use in metal, plastic and soft wood
• Intended for handheld and bench drilling setups

How to use

Secure the workpiece and mark the intended hole location. Use the centering drill at low to medium speed to begin the hole, applying steady, moderate feed pressure to allow the bit to establish a precise centre without walking. Once the pilot hole is formed, you can change to a larger drill size if necessary. For repeated or deep starts, periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips and maintain cutting efficiency.

Usage recommendations

Choose appropriate cutting speed and lubrication based on the material being drilled: lower speeds and cutting fluid for harder metals, and higher speeds for plastics and soft wood. Inspect the bit for wear before use and replace when tip accuracy or cutting performance declines to maintain precise centring.

Centred drilling with this Cimco centring drill bit reduces alignment errors and supports cleaner follow-up operations, making it a practical component in workshop and field toolkits.
