[Problem] To protect a leading end part of a drill having a coolant hole which is adapted for drilling a thin diameter or very thin diameter hole in a workpiece. [Solution] A coolant hole 33 is formed in a shank 3 and a shaft body 7 so as to extend through from a rear end surface 31 of the shank 3 to a leading end surface 15 of the shaft body 7 along an axis thereof. A leading end part of the coolant hole 33 is branched into a pair of discharge holes 35, at a position slightly toward a base end relative to the leading end surface 15 of the shaft body 13. The discharge holes 35 extend in the opposite directions, perpendicular to the coolant hole 33, respectively, and open at opposite side surfaces 37, 37 to define discharge ports 39, 39. A leading end opening 41 of the coolant hole 33 is closed by a bottom face 17 of the drill part 9.

The present invention discloses an industrial high speed micro drill that is made to access remote and inaccessible locations in order to blend, grind, polish and cut materials and parts as determined by visual inspection powered via a pneumatic power source. The high speed drill is deployed by a controlled, articulating guide tube that acts in a multidirectional fashion to direct the action of the assemblage and allow for discrete manipulation of the pneumatically powered drill while harboring a channel and pneumatic power source carrying rubber tubing.

A mini cutting bit includes a shank, a cutting part and a bit tip, wherein the cutting part has opposite ends connected to the shank and the bit tip. The bit tip and the cutting part are made of different materials, and the bit tip is harder than the cutting part.

A mini cutting bit includes a shank and a cutting part. The cutting part has a first spiral portion and a second spiral portion parallelly and twistedly formed thereon. The cutting part further has two chip removal flutes between the first and the second spiral portions. The first spiral portion has a first chip breaking flute on a top thereof while the second spiral portion has a second chip breaking flute. Widths of the first and the second chip breaking flutes are smaller than that of the tops of the first and the second spiral portions respectively.

In this small-diameter drill bit, two cutting blades having main cutting blades, of which a difference between lengths are 0.04 mm or less, are formed on a tip of a double-margin drill bit body having a diameter of 2 mm or less and a margin length/diameter ratio of 3 or more. Two tip flank faces are formed such that a first extension line extending from a linear first intersecting ridgeline between a first tip flank face and a second tip flank face of one of the flank faces to the linear first intersecting ridgeline of the other flank face is located on a side in the drill bit rotation direction with respect to the other linear first intersecting ridgeline. A distance between the first extension line and the linear first intersecting ridgeline is in a range of 0.04 mm-0.08 mm.

A small-diameter drill in which is a double margin having a diameter of 2 mm or less and a ratio of a margin length to a diameter of 3 or more, in which the margin length L in an axial direction from an outer peripheral end of a cutting edge to the rear ends of first and second margin parts and a ratio L/D to a diameter D are 3 or more, in which at least a surface of a chip discharge groove is provided with a hard coating made of nitride, in which a surface of the hard coating in the chip discharge groove has skewness (Ssk) defined in ISO25178 of less than 0, and in which the number of droplets having an equivalent circle diameter of 1.0 μm or more is 5 or less per 100 μm.sup.2 in cross-section observation of the hard coating.

A drill structure comprises a shank part and a bit part. A web is formed on the front end of the bit part. Two sides of the web are tilted backward to form two cutting faces. At least one chip-discharge groove is formed on the surface of the bit part. Each cutting face includes a primary cutting face and a secondary cutting face. The thickness of the prismatic web edge of at least one primary cutting face is smaller than the outer-side width of the primary cutting face. An auxiliary cutting face is extended to the wall of the flute from the cutting edge of the primary cutting face and a portion of a blade back of the secondary cutting face of another cutting face. The present invention decreases the drilling resistance during drilling a hole and increases the service life of the drill bit.
