Eagle Cutting Tool A712-106-I Hss Aircraft Drill Bit

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL A712-106-I is a No. 6 high-speed steel (HSS) aircraft-length drill bit with a 12-inch overall length (OAL). Designed for drilling through stacked materials, deep cross-members, and hard-to-reach areas in aircraft, automotive, and general fabrication applications, this extended-length bit delivers the reach that standard jobber-length drills cannot provide. HSS construction provides reliable hardness and heat resistance for cutting through mild steel, aluminum, and similar materials. At 0.13 pounds, the bit is lightweight enough for overhead and confined-space work without adding fatigue.

This aircraft drill bit is suited for professional use in aerospace fabrication, automotive bodywork, and structural metalworking where extended reach is required. The No. 6 diameter and 12-inch OAL make it a practical choice when drilling through deep sections or aligning holes across layered assemblies. Machinists, aircraft maintenance technicians, and metal fabricators are the typical end users for this style of bit.

Key Features

• No. 6 diameter aircraft-length drill bit for extended-reach drilling
• 12-inch overall length provides access to deep or obstructed drilling locations
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction offers hardness and heat resistance
• Lightweight at 0.13 pounds, reducing fatigue during prolonged use
• Suitable for mild steel, aluminum, and similar metalworking materials

Compatibility

Designed as an extended-length HSS aircraft drill bit suitable for use with standard drill chucks and drill presses that accept No. 6 diameter round-shank bits.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and used by machinists, metal fabricators, and aviation maintenance technicians. Secure the bit firmly in the chuck before operation and verify the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent movement. Use cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use and replace if chipping or dulling is observed.
