Dormer Drill Bit Long Series 1/4″

  • Increased Drilling Depth Specifically designed for applications where a standard bit would be too short, such as drilling through heavy-duty structural steel beams, thick timber, or recessed engine components.

  • Steam Tempered (Black Oxide) Finish The surface is steam-tempered to create a blue/black finish that excels at retaining cutting lubricants. This reduces friction and prevents “pick-up” (material welding to the flutes), which is a common failure point in deep-hole drilling.

  • Optimized HSS Rigidity While the added length increases the potential for flex, Dormer utilizes premium High-Speed Steel and a specialized web thickness to ensure the bit maintains maximum rigidity for straighter holes.

  • 118° Point Geometry The bit features a standard 118° point that is robust and versatile. It is designed to work effectively across a broad range of materials, including alloyed steel, cast iron, and aluminum.

  • Efficient Swarf Removal The flute geometry is precision-ground to ensure that large 1/4″ chips are lifted smoothly out of the hole, reducing the risk of clogging and heat-related failure.

Description

The Dormer A110 HSS Long Series 1/4″ is a professional-grade drill bit engineered for extended reach and deep-hole drilling. As a 1/4″ (6.35mm) bit, it is one of the most common sizes in any workshop, used for clearance holes for 1/4″ fasteners and as a tap drill for 5/16″–18 UNC or 5/16″–24 UNF applications. The A110 series is manufactured to the DIN 340 standard, providing a significantly longer flute and overall length compared to standard “Jobber” bits. This allows for drilling depths that are roughly 10x the diameter of the bit, provided proper chip evacuation techniques are used.
