Eagle Cutting Tool D250-224-I Hss Split Point Drill Bit

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL D250-224-I is a high-speed steel (HSS) drill bit designed for precision hole-making in metal, wood, and general-purpose materials. Featuring a 135-degree split point tip, this bit starts on contact without a center punch, reducing walking and improving positional accuracy. The split point geometry also reduces the thrust force required during drilling, making it well suited for production environments and high-cycle trade applications. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors reach for HSS split point bits when drilling through sheet metal, structural steel, pipe, and fastener stock.

This bit is appropriate for use in hand-held drills, drill presses, and magnetic base drills across residential, commercial, and light industrial settings. The HSS construction handles moderate heat buildup from sustained drilling cycles without rapid edge degradation. It is a practical stock item for service vans and shop tool inventories where consistent, reliable hole quality is required across a range of base materials.

Key Features

• 135-degree split point tip eliminates the need for center-punching and reduces bit walking on smooth surfaces
• High-speed steel construction provides durability across metal, wood, and composite materials
• Reduced thrust requirement compared to conventional 118-degree point geometry
• Suitable for hand drills and stationary drill press use
• Minimum order quantity of 1 allows single-unit purchasing for immediate replacement needs

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose HSS split point drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks in hand-held and bench-mounted drilling equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with rotary cutting tools and proper chuck-securing procedures. Ensure the drill or drill press is fully powered off and the chuck key is removed before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Wear eye protection at all times when operating drilling equipment.
