Description
Cut clean, true holes in tough stock with the IVY 1/4" cobalt steel D-bit. Hold tight tolerances, resist heat, and finish bores with fewer passes on metal, plastics, or hardwoods. Drop the 1/4" size into standard chucks for fast setup on the job or in the shop.
Key Features
- Cobalt steel edge: Maintain hardness under heat for longer service life.
- D-bit geometry: Guide straight and leave a smooth, accurate bore.
- 1/4" size: Fit common drill press and handheld chucks without adapters.
- Precision ground face: Reduce chatter and tear-out for cleaner entry and exit.
- Versatile use: Tackle pilot finishing, light reaming, countersinking, and slotting.
Applications
Dial in bolt, bushing, and hardware fits on brackets, plates, and fixtures. Tidy up misaligned pilot holes, prep parts for anchors, and handle on-site fabrication or repair with consistent results. Pair it with a rigid setup to keep holes straight and surfaces smooth.
