Value Collection SC1060032 Countersink 60 Degree Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC1060032 is a single-flute countersink designed for creating conical seat recesses in metal, wood, and composite materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it features a 60-degree included angle and a 1/2-inch head diameter. The 1/4-inch straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders. With a right-hand cutting direction and no pilot, this countersink suits machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians who need a straightforward, general-purpose countersinking tool for production or bench work.

This countersink is suited for light-duty countersinking operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and wood. The single-flute geometry produces a clean, chatter-resistant cut in hand-held or drill-press applications. The 60-degree included angle accommodates flat-head machine screws and fasteners requiring a standard 60-degree seat. It is typically used in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and general maintenance environments where consistent countersink geometry is required across a range of workpiece materials.

Key Features

• 60-degree included angle for standard flat-head fastener seating
• Single flute design reduces chatter and produces a smooth finish
• High-speed steel construction provides durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• 1/4-inch straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose countersinking
• No pilot design allows flexible positioning without a center guide

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose countersink compatible with standard 1/4-inch drill chucks, collet holders, and drill press spindles used in machining and fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

Install the 1/4-inch shank securely in a drill chuck or collet before use, and confirm the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent movement. Power down the drill press or disconnect the hand drill before changing or inspecting the tool. Use appropriate cutting speeds for the workpiece material — lower speeds generally apply to harder metals. Eye protection and appropriate chip management are required when countersinking metal.
