What It Is
The Micro 100 DC-2 is a plain-type center drill made from C2 micrograin carbide with an uncoated finish. It produces a 60-degree countersink angle and measures 5/64 in diameter. Machinists use it to create accurate starting points for subsequent drilling operations in metalwork.
Installation Notes
The tool fits standard drill chucks and collets that accept the 5/64 in shank. Because carbide is brittle, excessive run-out or sudden impact can fracture the cutting edges. Secure the workpiece firmly and avoid side loading to prevent premature failure.
Sustained Use Behaviour
The uncoated carbide maintains hardness at elevated temperatures generated during repetitive drilling cycles. Chip evacuation remains consistent as long as feed rates match the material being cut. The tool is not suited for deep-hole drilling beyond its flute length or for handheld use without rigid guidance.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the 60 degree angle is cutting correctly after setup?
Check that the drill produces a clean 60 degree countersink with no chatter in the workpiece.
What comes in the box and what must I purchase separately?
The package contains the DC-2 carbide center drill only; holders, collets and coolant are sold separately.
Which Micro 100 DC-2 version should I choose for a 5/64 inch hole?
Select the DC-2 model with 5/64 inch diameter and 60 degree angle for that hole size.
