The Axis Micro Carbide Drill in 1.69 mm diameter is a high-performance cutting solution designed for precision drilling across a wide range of materials. Part of the Axicoat-coated family, this drill features a medium flute length (5-8xD) that excels when hole depth is limited or access is tight. The series covers sizes from 0.3 mm up to 3.0 mm, making it a versatile choice for engineers, technicians, and hobbyists alike.

The drill is precision ground for excellent accuracy and consistency, and it is coated with Axicoat to deliver superior wear resistance and improved chip flow. These features, combined with the 5-8xD flute length, help you maintain clean holes and maximize tool life across challenging materials.

• Precision-ground accuracy: Precision-ground geometry delivers tight hole tolerances and consistent results across sizes, helping you achieve reliable performance every time.
• Axicoat coating for wear resistance: The proprietary coating reduces friction, extends tool life, and promotes smooth chip flow to minimize build-up and breakage in tough materials.
• Medium flute length for tight spaces: The 5-8xD flute length enables drilling in confined areas and shallow depths, with efficient chip evacuation to reduce stalls and repositioning.

With this drill, you can tackle demanding materials such as high-alloy steels, stainless steel, titanium alloy, and nickel alloy with confidence. The combination of precision-ground geometry, durable Axicoat coating, and a practical flute length translates to faster setup, fewer tool changes, and more consistent hole quality—whether you're manufacturing, repairing, or prototyping. This makes it a reliable, long-lasting choice that helps your workflow stay smooth and predictable.
