Value Collection 28600 Countersink 3/16 in Hss 82 Degree

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 28600 is a single-flute countersink designed for deburring and creating conical seat profiles in metal, wood, and composite materials. With a 3/16 inch head diameter and an 82-degree included angle, this tool produces clean, flat countersunk seats for flat-head fasteners in light-duty machining and fabrication work. The shank diameter also measures 3/16 inch, making it compatible with standard drill chucks and rotary tool holders. Constructed from high speed steel, it delivers adequate hardness for general-purpose countersinking tasks on the bench or in the field.

This countersink suits residential and light commercial fabrication, sheet metal work, cabinetry, and maintenance-repair-operations applications. The single-flute geometry reduces chatter on softer materials and thin-gauge stock. It is a practical tool for electricians, HVAC sheet metal workers, plumbers, and general maintenance technicians who need to seat flat-head screws flush with a work surface. Its compact head diameter makes it useful in tight or confined locations where larger multi-flute countersinks cannot fit.

Key Features

• 3/16 inch head diameter for compact access in confined work areas
• 82-degree included angle matches standard flat-head machine screw geometry
• Single-flute design minimizes chatter on thin-gauge metal and soft materials
• Matched shank and head diameter of 3/16 inch fits standard drill chucks
• High speed steel construction provides adequate hardness for general-purpose use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose countersink for use with standard drill chucks and rotary tools accepting a 3/16 inch shank. Suitable for creating 82-degree countersunk seats for flat-head fasteners in metal, wood, and composite substrates.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist, fabricator, or skilled tradesperson should select appropriate drill press or hand-drill speed for the substrate material before use. Secure the workpiece fully before engaging the tool to prevent walking or chatter. Eye protection is required when operating any rotary cutting tool. Do not exceed the rated speed range for high speed steel tooling in hard ferrous materials.
