Value Collection SC1082012 Countersink 82 Degree Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC1082012 is a single-flute countersink designed for creating chamfered entry points in drilled holes. Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it operates with a right-hand cutting direction and delivers an 82-degree included angle, making it well suited for standard flat-head fastener seating. The straight-cylindrical shank measures 3/16 inches in diameter, and the head diameter is also 3/16 inches. With a weight of 0.06 pounds, this is a compact, lightweight tool intended for bench or machine use by machinists, HVAC fabricators, electricians, and general trade professionals working with sheet metal or structural components.

This countersink is used wherever a fastener seat needs to be prepared in metal or similar materials. The 82-degree included angle matches the geometry required for standard flat-head machine screws and is a common angle in trade and industrial fabrication work. The single-flute design produces a clean, chatter-resistant cut on a range of materials. It is appropriate for use in drill presses, lathes, and hand-held electric drills when proper speed and feed are maintained. No pilot is included, and the tool is rated as a single-end type with no countersink head only configuration.

Key Features

• 82-degree included angle seats standard flat-head fasteners without modification
• Single-flute geometry reduces chatter and produces a clean, smooth finish
• High-speed steel construction provides durability across common metalworking applications
• Bright, uncoated finish allows for easy visual inspection of cutting edge condition
• 3/16-inch straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collets
• Lightweight at 0.06 pounds, minimizing tool fatigue in repetitive countersinking tasks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use countersink for trade and industrial applications requiring an 82-degree single-flute high-speed steel countersink with a 3/16-inch straight shank.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed by machinists, sheet metal workers, and general trade professionals using a drill press, lathe, or hand drill. Secure the shank firmly in the chuck before operation and confirm the workpiece is clamped. Select an appropriate spindle speed for the material being countersunk — lower speeds are generally safer on harder metals. Inspect the cutting edge before each use and remove the tool from service if chipping or dullness is observed.
