The Europa Tools Slot Drill is a compact, high-precision cutting tool designed for clean slotting in metals and other tough materials. It’s built for machinists and workshop professionals who demand stability, accuracy, and long tool life. Diameter: 1.5 mm Flutes: 2-flute design for efficient material removal and reliable chip clearance Length: Short overall length to maximize rigidity and minimize deflection Material: HSS-E with 8% cobalt for enhanced hardness, heat resistance, and wear life Finish: Uncoated surface to improve chip evacuation and reduce friction Designed to deliver precise, consistent slots, this tool maintains tight tolerances even in challenging cutting conditions. The combination of cobalt-enhanced HSS and a short, rigid flute geometry helps resist heat buildup and wear, supporting longer tool life and steadier performance during slotting operations. The uncoated finish aids in smoother chip flow and better surface quality, making it well suited for delicate finishing of narrow slots and keyways.
