A rotary cutting tool includes: a blade portion; a shank portion having a diameter larger than a diameter of the blade portion; and a tapered connecting portion connecting the blade portion and the shank portion. The shank portion includes a plurality of coolant-guide recessed grooves provided in its outer circumferential surface. Each of the coolant-guide recessed grooves has a groove depth and a groove width that is larger than the groove depth. Each of the coolant-guide recessed grooves has a groove bottom that is shaped such that the groove depth is reduced as the each of the coolant-guide recessed grooves extends from its start end toward a groove-depth regional-change position in which a tendency of change of the groove depth is changed.

Hydraulic expansion chuck with a basic body, with an expansion bush which is received in the basic body and defines a reception space for a tool to be clamped, and with a pressure chamber which is delimited between the expansion bush and the basic body. A securing pin which extends through the basic body and the expansion bush into the reception space. Also broadly contemplated herein is a method for producing a hydraulic expansion chuck via: providing a basic body with a blind hole, into which an internal thread is cut. An expansion bush is then soldered into the basic body. Finally, an orifice is made at the bottom of the blind hole and extends through the material of the expansion bush into a tool reception space which is delimited in the expansion bush.

Finally, an orifice is made at the bottom of the blind hole and extends through the material of the expansion bush into a tool reception space which is delimited in the expansion bush.

A surgical cutting tool includes an elongated shaft and a cutting head. The shaft defines a coupling portion terminating at a proximal end of the shaft, a stem portion, and a distal portion. The stem portion defines a central axis. The coupling portion optionally defines a deflection surface positioned oblique with respect to the central axis and connected with a first driven surface and a second driven surface. Upon insertion into a drive chuck, the deflection surface promotes self-alignment of the cutting tool and the drive chuck.

A device for transmitting a torque produced by a drill to a drill bit includes a shank and a tool fitting. The shank has a first outer conical region, a groove region, and a second outer conical region and has longitudinal grooves. The tool fitting has a basic body which has a rotary driving region with outer rotary driving grooves, an intermediate element which has an inner driver region with inner rotary drivers and an outer driver region with outer rotary drivers, and a locking device. In the connected state, the inner rotary drivers engage in the longitudinal grooves and the outer rotary drivers engage in the outer rotary driving grooves. Lower rotary drivers are arranged on the base surface of the intermediate element where the lower rotary drivers, in the connected state, interact with lower rotary driving grooves in the rotary driving region of the basic body.
