Machined from high-speed steel, this tool features a straight-cylindrical shank and right-hand cutting direction, making it a standard fit for drill press, CNC, and hand-held applications. The 82-degree included angle is the industry standard for flat-head fastener seating in metalwork and fabrication. With a 0.5 inch maximum cutting diameter and an overall length of 2 inches, this countersink is well-suited for production and maintenance work where consistent fastener prep is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis countersink is used in metal fabrication shops, machine shops, and general manufacturing environments. It handles a broad spectrum of materials, including mild steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, magnesium, high-tensile steel, high-nickel steel, Monel, and plastic. It is appropriate for both production runs and one-off part preparation. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and skilled maintenance trades are the typical users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e82-degree included angle matches the standard for flat-head and oval-head fastener seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-flute geometry provides smoother surface finish and reduced chatter compared to fewer-flute designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction offers good toughness across a wide material range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-end design for straightforward setup and replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction compatible with standard drill press and CNC spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for countersinking operations in alloy steel, aluminum, brass, cast iron, high-nickel steel, high-tensile steel, magnesium, magnesium alloy, mild steel, Monel, plastic, and stainless steel.
