With a 1-1\/2 inch head diameter and a 60-degree included angle, it is built for applications that require precise angular seating — such as flat-head fastener recesses and deburring operations on drilled holes. The tool is constructed from high speed steel (HSS), which provides adequate hardness and wear resistance for general-purpose cutting in mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable metals. The 3\/4 inch straight cylindrical shank mounts directly into standard drill chucks and machine tool holders. This countersink is a production-grade tool installed by machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance trades operating drill presses, mills, or CNC equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis countersink is suited for manual and machine-fed applications in job shops, maintenance facilities, and light manufacturing environments. The single-flute geometry reduces chatter tendency on hand-held and lower-rigidity setups compared to multi-flute designs. The 60-degree included angle matches the seating geometry required by metric and unified flat-head machine screws commonly used in general fabrication and equipment assembly. It is intended for use in non-interrupted cuts on ferrous and non-ferrous base materials within standard cutting-speed parameters for HSS tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch head diameter provides a wide countersink recess suitable for larger fastener heads and deburring wide-bore openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60-degree included angle matches standard flat-head fastener seating geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-flute design reduces vibration and chatter during operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction offers hardness and resharpening capability for general-purpose metal cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch straight cylindrical shank is compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose countersink for use in standard drill chucks and collet-style tool holders accepting a 3\/4 inch straight cylindrical shank.

Before mounting, confirm the machine spindle or chuck is fully de-energized and at rest. Secure the shank fully into the chuck or collet and verify runout before cutting. Follow established HSS cutting-speed guidelines for the workpiece material and apply appropriate cutting fluid to extend tool life and maintain surface finish quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18044\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750627442994,"sku":"18044","price":304.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/67b03f0874902b2537b5a9014901b133.jpg?v=1788917529","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-18044-countersink-1-1-2-in-60-degree-hss-1-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
