Value Collection SC2060016 Countersink 60 Deg 6 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC2060016 is a single-end, 6-flute countersink designed for producing clean, accurate 60-degree countersunk holes in metal and other machinable materials. Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it operates with a right-hand cutting direction and mounts via a straight-cylindrical shank. The 1/4-inch shank diameter and 1/4-inch head diameter make it well-suited for light-duty countersinking tasks. No pilot is included, so centering depends on the operator or a drill press setup. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians routinely use this style of countersink for deburring and fastener seat preparation.

This countersink is appropriate for general-purpose shop use including countersinking screw and bolt heads flush with or below a workpiece surface. The 60-degree included angle matches the geometry required for certain flat-head fastener applications and specialized countersinking work. It fits standard drill chucks and collet holders accepting 1/4-inch round shanks, making it compatible with drill presses, milling machines, and hand drills used in fabrication, maintenance, and light manufacturing environments.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist or tradesperson familiar with rotating cutting tools. Secure the workpiece fully before engaging the cutter, and set spindle speed according to the workpiece material and tool diameter. Inspect the cutting edges before use and replace the tool if chipping or wear is present. Always wear appropriate eye protection when operating any rotary cutting tool.
