Eagle Cutting Tool SC404-145-D 45 Cobalt Stub Drill

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL SC404-145-D is a 45-degree cobalt stub drill manufactured in the USA. Stub drills feature a shortened flute and overall length compared to jobber-length bits, giving the tool greater rigidity and reduced deflection during drilling operations. The cobalt construction improves heat resistance and cutting edge durability, making this bit well suited for hard metals, stainless steel, and abrasive materials where standard high-speed steel bits wear prematurely. Machinists, pipefitters, and metal fabricators reach for stub drills when working in tight clearances or when a stiffer drill profile is needed to start a hole accurately.

This bit is a practical choice for shop and field metalworking applications where stub-length geometry is required. It is appropriate for use in drill presses, CNC machines, and hand drills with suitable chucks. The cobalt alloy composition makes it a common selection for drilling ferrous metals, cast iron, hardened alloys, and other tough substrates encountered in mechanical and trade environments.

Key Features

• Cobalt alloy construction for superior heat resistance and extended tool life in hard metals
• Stub-length geometry provides increased rigidity and minimizes bit deflection
• USA manufactured
• Suitable for drilling stainless steel, ferrous metals, and abrasive alloys
• Compact flute length allows use in confined spaces and tight clearances

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use stub drill compatible with standard drill chucks accepting the appropriate shank diameter for this series.

Installation Notes

Install and remove drill bits only when the spindle is fully stopped and power is disconnected or the machine is locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Use cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend bit life and improve hole quality when drilling hard metals. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is observed.
