  • High-Performance TiN-Tip The Titanium Nitride coating at the point reduces friction and dissipates heat, allowing for increased cutting speeds and a service life significantly longer than standard HSS bits.

  • No-Wander Split Point Equipped with a 118° split point geometry, this bit is self-centering. It bites into the material immediately upon contact, eliminating the need for a center punch.

  • Superior Chip Evacuation The specialized flute design is engineered to lift and remove swarf rapidly. This prevents clogging, reduces heat buildup, and ensures a cleaner finish inside the hole.

  • Industrial-Grade Versatility Specifically designed to drill through a wide range of materials, including alloy and non-alloy steels, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals like aluminum.

  • Steam Tempered Finish The body features a steam-tempered (blue) finish that improves the retention of cutting fluids, ensuring the bit stays lubricated and cool during heavy-duty tasks.

  • Universal Compatibility With a diameter of 7.94mm, this bit fits perfectly into all standard 10mm (3/8″) and 13mm (1/2″) drill chucks.

Description

The Dormer A002 HSS TiN-Tip 5/16″ is a professional-grade jobber length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling. It is one of the most common sizes in mechanical work, frequently used as the standard tap drill size for 3/8″-24 UNF (in certain materials) and as a clearance hole for 5/16″ bolts. This 5/16″ (7.94mm) bit features Dormer’s flagship TiN-Tip technology. By applying a Titanium Nitride coating specifically to the working tip, the bit gains extreme surface hardness where friction is highest, while the High-Speed Steel (HSS) body remains flexible enough to resist snapping under torque.
