Dormer Pramet A940 8.00 mm HSS-E High Perf Multi‑App Straight Shank Long Series Drill (DIN/ANSI) is engineered to power through a wide range of metals with precision and reliability. This is the single drill you reach for when you need consistent performance across different materials and challenging depths.

• 130-degree point for immediate self-centering entry and reduced push force, helping you start holes cleanly and minimize wandering.
• Bright finish designed to prevent workpiece material from sticking to the cutting edge, cutting down chip buildup and improving overall cutting efficiency.
• Special parabolic flute design enables drilling extra deep holes in one pass, boosting productivity when long, straight boreholes are required.
• Premium HSS‑E material delivers a balanced mix of hardness and toughness, suitable for drilling steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and other common alloys.
• Long series with straight shank provides stable guidance in deep holes and compatibility with standard chucks for dependable performance and reduced runout.
• High performance with H10 hole tolerance ensures high-quality, accurate holes even at higher speeds and feeds, keeping tooling and parts within tight tolerances.
• DIN/ANSI compatibility ensures reliable fit in widely used tool holders, making this drill a dependable choice for diverse workshop setups.

Whether you’re outfitting a job shop, a maintenance bay, or a production line, this drill’s multi-application capability covers everyday metalworking and more demanding projects. Use cases include drilling through mild steel panels, aluminum extrusions, and stainless components where depth and precision matter. The combination of a self-centering point, parabolic flutes, and a bright cutting edge delivers smooth starts, excellent chip evacuation, and consistent hole geometry from shallow bores to deep, high‑quality holes.

Designed for machinists who value precision without swapping tools, the A940 8.00 mm drill helps you reduce cycle times, improve hole quality, and extend tool life. For best results, match speeds and feeds to the material being drilled and let the parabolic flute geometry do the work on longer holes while maintaining clean, accurate finishes.
