Why choose it

The HSS-VarioPLUS series is engineered for extended tool life and high precision. The multi-cut geometry reduces cutting forces and improves chip evacuation, while the internal coolant delivery keeps the cutting edge cool, preventing premature wear. Automatic core ejection saves time by removing the slug without manual intervention, making this cutter a productive choice for high-volume drilling.

Ideal use cases

• Drilling holes in steel beams and plates on construction sites
• Creating precise openings in stainless steel and aluminum for fabrication
• Maintenance and repair work on industrial machinery
• Use with magnetic drills for on-site metalworking

Good to know

The Weldon shank (3/4 inch) is a standard interface for magnetic drilling machines, ensuring a secure and concentric fit. For use on pillar drills, an adapter may be required. Always use cutting fluid or coolant for optimal performance and tool life. This cutter is sold individually.
