Eagle Cutting Tool A700-018-I Hss Aircraft Drill 9/32 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL A700-018-I is a high-speed steel (HSS) aircraft-length drill bit designed for reaching fasteners, rivets, and structural members in deep or obstructed drilling locations. With a 9/32 inch diameter and a 6 inch overall length (OAL), this bit provides the extended reach required for aerospace, aviation maintenance, and heavy fabrication work. HSS construction delivers reliable hardness and heat resistance across a range of metals including aluminum, mild steel, and sheet stock. Licensed tradespeople and experienced technicians handling structural or sheet-metal applications will find this bit suited to production and maintenance environments.

Aircraft-length drill bits serve applications where a standard-length jobber drill cannot reach the target hole location. Common scenarios include drilling through structural framing, multi-layer sheet metal assemblies, and deep cavity access points in HVAC ductwork fabrication, aviation maintenance, and industrial equipment repair. The extended flute length and 9/32 inch diameter make this bit appropriate for through-hole and pilot-hole work in both ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

Key Features

• 9/32 inch diameter for precise, consistent hole sizing in metal stock
• 6 inch overall length provides extended reach into deep or obstructed work areas
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction resists heat buildup during continuous drilling
• Aircraft-length geometry suited for structural, sheet metal, and fabrication applications
• Minimum order quantity of 1, allowing single-unit procurement for service and maintenance needs

Compatibility

Designed as an aircraft-length replacement or stock drill bit compatible with standard 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch keyed or keyless drill chucks accepting round-shank bits. Suitable for use with corded drills, drill presses, and right-angle drill attachments common in sheet metal and structural work.

Installation Notes

Secure the bit firmly in the chuck and verify it is centered before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat. Apply steady, consistent feed pressure and reduce speed as the bit exits the material to prevent grab or deflection. Wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before starting any drilling operation.
