Value Collection SC1060012 Countersink 60 Deg 1 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC1060012 is a single-flute countersink designed for creating clean, angled seat profiles in metal and other materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it delivers consistent cutting performance in light-duty countersinking applications. The 60-degree included angle — with a 30-degree centerline angle — suits standard fastener seating work. The straight cylindrical shank measures 3/16 inches in diameter, making it compatible with common drill chucks and collet holders. This tool is a single-end design with no pilot and no countersink head-only configuration, meaning it engages material directly upon rotation in the right-hand cutting direction.

The SC1060012 is suited for metalworking, maintenance, and fabrication environments where countersinking for flat-head fasteners is required. Its compact 3/16-inch shank diameter makes it a practical choice for benchtop drill presses, hand drills, and small machining setups. The single-flute geometry provides free-cutting action on softer metals and is appropriate for intermittent production or repair work. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with ferrous and non-ferrous stock will find this tool a straightforward fit for standard countersink tasks.

Key Features

• 60-degree included angle for standard flat-head fastener countersinking
• Single-flute design promotes free-cutting action and reduces chatter on softer materials
• High-speed steel construction provides durability across a range of metal substrates
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional tolerance
• 3/16-inch straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet systems
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with conventional drill press and hand drill operation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard single-flute HSS countersink for use in drill presses, hand drills, and collet-equipped machining setups accepting a 3/16-inch straight cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using standard drill press or hand-drill equipment. Secure the 3/16-inch shank firmly in the chuck or collet before operation, and verify workpiece clamping to prevent movement during cutting. Use appropriate cutting fluid for ferrous materials to extend tool life and improve finish quality. Follow applicable shop safety standards for rotating tooling, including eye protection and secure workholding.
