The Irwin 1877714 1/4″ High Speed Steel Countersink Drill Bit is designed for creating clean, accurate countersunk holes for small flat-head fasteners in a variety of machinable materials. Manufactured from industrial-grade high speed steel, this countersink is built for precision work where control and accuracy are critical. The compact 1/4-inch diameter makes it well suited for lighter fastening tasks, detailed fabrication, and finish work.
This countersink features a precision ground 82-degree cutting angle, which matches the standard angle used for most flat-head screws in metal, wood, and plastic. A multi-flute cutting design helps reduce vibration and chatter, producing smoother results and improved control during operation. The black oxide finish provides added corrosion resistance while reducing friction during cutting. With a 1-17/32-inch overall length and a 1/4-inch round shank, the Irwin 1877714 is compatible with most handheld drills and drill presses, making it a practical choice for shop, jobsite, and maintenance use.
