Eagle Cutting Tool SC404-154-D Cobalt Stub Drill Size 54

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL SC404-154-D is a size 54 cobalt stub drill manufactured in the USA. Cobalt stub drills are shorter than standard jobber-length drills, providing added rigidity and reduced deflection when drilling into hard or tough materials. This drill is suited for professional metalworking applications where precision entry holes, spot drilling, or drilling in tight clearance areas are required. Licensed machinists, pipefitters, electricians, and HVAC techs rely on cobalt stub drills when working with stainless steel, hardened steel, cast iron, and other abrasive alloys.

The SC404-154-D is designed for use in hand-held drill motors, drill presses, and CNC or manual lathes. Its stub-length geometry makes it a practical choice in confined work spaces where a full-length jobber drill would bind or chatter. Typical applications include drilling pilot holes in structural steel, sheet metal fabrication, and equipment repair in the field or shop. The cobalt alloy construction maintains cutting hardness at elevated temperatures generated during dry or minimal-lubrication drilling.

Key Features

• Cobalt alloy construction for high heat resistance and extended tool life in hard materials
• Stub length geometry provides increased rigidity and reduces drill deflection
• Size 54 wire gauge diameter for precise small-diameter hole applications
• Manufactured in the USA
• Minimum order quantity of 1 unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard consumable stub drill compatible with 3-jaw drill chucks and collet systems accepting wire gauge size 54 drill shanks in hand-held, drill press, and machine tool setups.

Installation Notes

Cobalt stub drills are installed and replaced by machinists, pipefitters, and trade technicians using standard drill chucks or collet holders. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or cooling method when drilling ferrous metals to extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace worn or chipped drills to maintain hole quality and prevent workpiece damage.
