Cleveland C46262 Combo Drill Countersink Size 0 Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C46262 is a combination drill and countersink designed for simultaneous drilling and countersinking operations in a single pass. Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this tool accepts no insert and features a double-end configuration for extended tool life. The body diameter measures 1/8 inch with a drill point diameter of 1/32 inch and a 118-degree drill point angle. A 60-degree included angle on the countersink portion produces clean, accurate seats for flat-head fasteners. Right-hand cutting direction suits standard drill press and hand-drill setups used by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance trades.

This combo drill countersink is suited for light-duty countersinking and center-drilling work on a range of materials including carbon steel, alloy tool steel, cast iron, and aluminum. It fits standard drill press chucks and hand-held electric drills. Its compact overall length of approximately 1.125 inches makes it practical for confined setups and bench-top drilling operations where a full-length combination drill would be excessive. Typical applications include preparing holes for flat-head machine screws and creating center holes for lathe work.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for durability across steel, cast iron, and aluminum workpieces
• Double-end design extends usable tool life before replacement is needed
• 118-degree drill point angle for standard drilling geometry on common metals
• 60-degree included angle countersink produces accurate flat-head fastener seats
• Bright, uncoated finish with no coating to flake or chip during use
• Right-hand cut compatible with all standard drill press and hand-drill equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct substitution for size 0 combination drill countersinks used in general metalworking, maintenance, and fabrication applications on carbon steel, alloy tool steel, cast iron, and aluminum workpieces.

Installation Notes

Install this tool in a standard drill press, milling machine, or hand-held drill with an appropriate chuck sized for a 1/8-inch shank. Secure the chuck firmly before operation and confirm the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent movement during drilling. Use cutting fluid or lubricant when working on steel or cast iron to extend tool life and improve hole quality. Replace the tool at the first sign of chipping or excessive wear rather than attempting regrinding on standard shop equipment.
