The Europa Tools Stub Drill, HPD-SUS HSS TiN Coated, 12.4 mm, is a versatile drilling solution designed to handle a variety of materials with reliable performance. It delivers strong results in stainless steel and also performs well in mild steel, aluminum, copper, and plastics, making it a practical choice for workshops, fabrication shops, and field service tasks.

Built with a high-helix geometry and sharp cutting edges, this stub drill minimizes built-up edge while enabling high-speed, high-efficiency drilling. The stub-length design combines with a wide flute to improve chip evacuation, reducing heat, vibration, and deflection for more stable holes and better overall quality.

• Wide flute and stub length for efficient chip evacuation: enhances chip removal and reduces vibration and deflection, helping maintain hole accuracy and finish even on tougher materials.
• High-helix design with sharp cutting edges: delivers clean cuts with less built-up edge, supporting fast, high-performance drilling across a range of metals and plastics.
• TiN-coated HSS-EX with vanadium: the hardened, vanadium-rich steel and superior TiN coating enable higher speeds and feeds, longer tool life, and a smoother surface finish for productive machining.

This combination of material robustness, coating efficiency, and thoughtful geometry translates into real-world benefits: faster drilling cycles, fewer tool changes, and consistent results across stainless and other common metals. If you’re aiming for reliable throughput, longer tool life, and quality holes with minimal downtime, this 12.4 mm stub drill is a dependable choice for a wide range of applications.
