FANAR solid carbide drill bit Ø6.00 mm, 44/82 mm length, 5xD HA6 VHM AT IK MASTERDRILL DIN 6537

FANAR solid carbide drill bit Ø6.00 mm, 44/82 mm length, 5xD HA6 VHM AT IK MASTERDRILL DIN 6537 is a precision metalworking tool designed for reliable drilling in production and workshop environments. The drill features a 6.00 mm cutting diameter, a working length of 44 mm and an overall length of 82 mm, manufactured from solid tungsten carbide (VHM) and shaped to the DIN 6537 shank form for stable clamping. The HA6 geometry and a 5xD length ratio make this tool suitable for accurate through and blind hole drilling in a variety of ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

Advantages

The solid carbide construction provides high rigidity and wear resistance, enabling consistent hole quality and extended tool life compared with high-speed steel equivalents. The HA6 geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and stable cutting at typical drilling speeds for carbide tools. The DIN 6537 shank form ensures secure mounting in compatible chucks and tool holders, reducing runout and improving concentricity for precision operations.

Suitable for

• Precision through-hole drilling in metal components
• Blind hole drilling where a 44 mm working length is required
• Workshop and production drilling operations with carbide tooling
• Machining of steels, cast iron and non-ferrous alloys when carbide tooling is recommended

How to use

Mount the drill securely in a compatible chuck or tool holder that accepts DIN 6537 shank form. Select appropriate spindle speed and feed rate for a 6.00 mm carbide drill based on the workpiece material and machining conditions; use cutting data recommended for carbide tools. Apply a suitable cutting fluid or coolant when machining steels and other materials that require lubrication to improve tool life and surface finish. For blind holes monitor penetration depth to avoid bottoming out and adjust feed as required to maintain hole tolerance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use steady, moderate feed rates and maintain correct tool clamping to minimise runout. Replace the drill when wear or chipping affects hole quality. When drilling hard or abrasive materials, reduce cutting speed and increase coolant application to extend tool life.
