Guhring 9003010001600 Micro Drill Bit Wire 96 Cobalt

Product Description

The GUHRING 9003010001600 is a cobalt micro drill bit designed for precision drilling in tight-tolerance applications. It carries a wire gauge size of 96, which corresponds to a decimal diameter of 0.0063 inches. The bit features a 118-degree faceted point angle with web thinning on a tapered web configuration, promoting accurate entry and reduced thrust. Overall length is 0.984 inches, and the straight-cylindrical shank measures 1.00 mm in diameter. The spiral flute geometry follows a regular spiral pattern with a 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio. This bit is manufactured to DIN 1899 specification and is intended for installation by machining professionals and precision trades.

This micro drill bit is suited for drilling aluminum as its primary workpiece material, with titanium alloy listed as a secondary compatible material. The bright, uncoated finish makes it appropriate for applications where coating buildup or contamination must be avoided. Maximum drilling depth is 0.034 inches (0.86 mm). It is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units, making it appropriate for production or shop-stock scenarios where consistent micro-diameter tooling is required across multiple setups.

Key Features

• Wire size 96 with 0.0063-inch decimal diameter for micro-precision drilling
• 118-degree faceted point angle with web thinning for reduced entry thrust
• Cobalt tool material for heat resistance in difficult-to-machine materials
• Bright, uncoated finish compatible with aluminum and titanium alloy workpieces
• Regular spiral flute with 5xD ratio for effective chip evacuation in shallow holes
• Manufactured to DIN 1899 specification for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style micro drill bit replacement or production tooling option for applications requiring wire size 96 diameter precision drilling, with primary suitability for aluminum and secondary suitability for titanium alloy workpieces per material codes K, M, N, P, and S.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this micro drill bit should be performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians familiar with high-speed micro-diameter drilling operations. Power down and lock out all spindle equipment before loading or changing tooling. The straight-cylindrical shank requires a collet or chuck rated for 1.00 mm shank diameters to ensure concentricity and prevent bit deflection or breakage. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit; use appropriate cutting fluid applied externally per shop practice for the workpiece material.
