KEO 55512 Cobalt Steel Single-End Countersink, TiN Coated, 6 Flutes, 60 Degree Point Angle, Round Shank, 1/2" Shank Diameter, 1-1/4" Body Diameter

KEO 6-flute line of countersinks are companions to our single flute countersinks and our 3- and 4-flute center reamer line. As a rule, the more edges per revolution, the greater amount of material that may be removed. We have designed the 6-flute tools with staggered cutting edges. Cobalt steel tools are similar to high-speed steel, but with more cobalt for improved performance when cutting harder metals such as stainless steel or nickel alloys. Titanium nitride coatings add a hard layer of gold-colored ceramic to the surface that extends tool life and permits faster cutting speeds than uncoated tools. Round shanks allow use with a wide variety of toolholding systems. When run in a counterclockwise direction (right-hand cut) spiral fluted tools evacuate chips up and out of the cut to reduce clogging. 60 degree angle.
