Rotabroach Magnetic Drill Bit HSS 16 mm Cutting Diameter, 50 mm Depth, Bright Finish, RAPL160

The Rotabroach RAPL160 is a high-performance magnetic Drill Bit, crafted from high-speed steel (HSS), with a 16 mm cutting diameter and 50 mm maximum cutting depth. This robust annular cutter is designed for use with magnetic drilling systems, delivering reliable holemaking in ferrous metals and structural steel. The HSS construction ensures longevity and maintains sharp cutting edges, making it a preferred choice for demanding industrial environments.

Engineered for accuracy and efficiency, the RAPL160 features a straight flute geometry that enhances chip removal and reduces cutting friction. The bright finish further minimizes material adhesion and heat build-up, allowing consistent, clean cuts even during continuous operation. The precision-ground 90° drill point angle facilitates exact hole starts and contributes to symmetrical hole profiles, which is essential in fabrication and assembly work.

Rotabroach's Raptor series cutters are trusted for their fine-finish capabilities, often surpassing traditional twist drills in precision and speed. These annular cutters optimize cutting edge geometry to reduce cutting forces, saving both time and energy in high-frequency use. The single-piece design eliminates the risks of tool breakage common in multi-part cutters and ensures consistent alignment with machine arbors.

Typical applications of the RAPL160 include fabrication shops, steel construction, heavy engineering, rail maintenance, and petrochemical installations where accurate, clean hole cutting is needed through dense or thick materials. Its compatibility with a wide range of magnetic drilling machines makes it a universal and reliable tool for professionals in manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments.

The bit is well-suited for operations requiring symmetrical and repeatable results. It also benefits from improved chip evacuation thanks to the U-shaped flute recesses, which helps prevent clogging and maximizes productivity during batch drilling.
