Dormer Pramet A976 2.40 mm HSS-E High Performance Multi-App Straight Shank Extra Long Drill DIN 1869 / 1

When you need precision, reach, and reliability in a single small-diameter tool, the Dormer Pramet A976 delivers. This 2.40 mm HSS-E drill is engineered for multi‑application use, making it a versatile choice for shops that encounter a variety of materials and deep-hole challenges. Its straight shank fits a wide range of chucks and machines, simplifying setups and reducing tool change times.

• 130° point for self‑centering: The optimized point geometry centers the bit quickly and reduces the push force required, helping you start clean holes with less manual guidance.
• Bright finish: A corrosion-resistant surface that minimizes built-up edge and material sticking to the cutting edge, promoting smoother starts and longer tool life.
• Parabolic flute design: Specifically engineered for drilling extra-deep holes in a single pass, improving chip evacuation and reducing the need for re‑drilling or pecking.
• Premium HSS-E material: Enhanced wear resistance and heat tolerance make it suitable for drilling a range of metals, including steel, aluminum, and stainless steel.
• Extra long length series: Designed for deep holes and applications where extended reach is essential, minimizing tool changes and increasing productivity.
• DIN 1869 / 1 compliant: Built to standard dimensions for predictable performance and interchangeability with other DIN 1869 tools.

Ideal for engineers, machinists, and production environments tackling deep-hole drilling in tight or recessed spaces. Whether you’re fabricating precision components, conduits, or fixtures, the A976 2.40 mm drill delivers consistent starts, reliable hole quality, and the reach you need without compromising rigidity.

How it helps your workflow:

• Reduces setup time with a universal straight shank that works across common drill chucks and CNC heads.
• Delivers clean entry and accurate hole placement even in hard-to-reach workpieces thanks to the deep-drilling capability of the parabolic flute.
• Minimizes maintenance and downtime due to its durable HSS-E construction and durable bright finish.
