Eagle Cutting Tool C1080-034-D Cobalt Drill Bit 17/32 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL C1080-034-D is a 17/32-inch cobalt screw machine (stub length) drill bit with a 1/2-inch straight shank, manufactured in the USA. Cobalt construction gives this bit the heat resistance and edge retention needed for drilling hard metals, stainless steel, and other tough materials that would quickly wear down standard high-speed steel tooling. The stub-length body is stiffer than jobber-length bits, reducing deflection and improving hole accuracy in production and maintenance drilling applications. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die workers, HVAC fabricators, and industrial maintenance technicians reach for this style of bit when working with hard or abrasive stock.

This drill bit suits metalworking applications in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and industrial maintenance settings. The 1/2-inch shank is compatible with standard drill chucks and milling machine spindles that accept that shank diameter. Screw machine-length bits are a common choice for CNC drill presses, manual drill presses, and hand-held drills where rigidity and minimal runout are priorities. Made in the USA, this bit is appropriate for trade professionals and shops that require domestic-manufactured cutting tools for specification or compliance purposes.

Key Features

• 17/32-inch cutting diameter for precise, consistent hole sizing
• Cobalt construction provides superior heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS bits
• 1/2-inch straight shank fits standard 1/2-inch drill chucks and spindles
• Stub/screw machine length reduces deflection and improves hole straightness
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed for use with any drill press, CNC drilling machine, or hand-held drill equipped with a 1/2-inch capacity chuck. Suitable for drilling ferrous metals, stainless steel, hard plastics, and other demanding materials.

Installation Notes

Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling hard metals or stainless steel to extend tool life and maintain cut quality. Ensure the workpiece is clamped securely before beginning the cut. Worn or chipped cutting edges should be resharpened or the bit replaced before continued use to avoid workpiece damage or tool breakage.
