Introducing the Dormer Pramet A940 13.00 mm HSS-E HIGH PERF MULT-APP STRAIGHT SHANK LONG SERIES DRILL DIN/ANSI—a multi-application drilling solution built for speed, accuracy, and deep-hole capability in metalworking. This drill is designed to perform across steel, aluminium, and stainless steel with consistently high-quality holes and minimal tool changes.

• 130-degree point for self-centering and reduced push force: Precise point geometry starts the hole cleanly, minimizes wandering, and lowers the effort required to initiate cutting—especially beneficial when working with tougher materials.
• Bright finish for easier starts: A bright, non-stick surface helps prevent workpiece material from sticking to the cutting edge, delivering smoother entry and cleaner holes.
• Parabolic flute design enables deep-hole drilling in one pass: The specialized flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and stable cutting, reducing the need for multiple passes even when drilling deep holes.
• Premium HSS-E material for versatility and longevity: High-speed steel with cobalt (HSS-E) delivers higher red hardness, extending tool life when drilling through steel, stainless steel, and aluminum at demanding speeds.
• Long-series, straight-shank suitability: The straight shank provides broad compatibility with a wide range of chucks and holders, while the long-series design gives additional reach for deeper holes, all aligned to DIN/ANSI standards for reliable interchangeability.
• High-performance hole quality with H10 tolerance: Engineered to produce precise hole sizes at high speeds and feeds, supporting tight assemblies and consistent downstream results.

Who benefits from the Dormer Pramet A940? machinists, fabricators, and workshop professionals who need a single, dependable drill capable of handling multiple materials and deep drilling tasks without sacrificing accuracy or efficiency.

Practical usage tips for optimal results:

• Match speeds and feeds to the material—start conservative, then dial in for steel, stainless steel, and aluminium to maintain edge life and cut quality.
• Use appropriate lubrication or coolant to manage heat and extend tool life, particularly when drilling deep holes.
• For deep-hole work, consider a light pecking cycle to aid chip evacuation and prevent clogging.
• Securely clamp your workpiece to minimize vibration and ensure concentricity for repeatable, high-turity holes.

Equip your workshop with a drill that combines precision, durability, and versatility—the Dormer Pramet A940 13.00 mm HSS-E HIGH PERF MULT-APP STRAIGHT SHANK LONG SERIES DRILL DIN/ANSI is built to deliver reliable performance across a broad range of metals and applications.
