RUKO FLS-DIN373-M-8 kernloch-senker, HSS, M8, pilootgat

Counterboring for hexagon socket head cap screws often requires a precise pilot hole to guide the tool and achieve a clean, flat seat. The RUKO FLS-DIN373-M-8 Kernloch counterbore solves this with a pilot diameter matched to the core hole for M8 screws, ensuring accurate alignment and reduced walking during cutting.

Who is it for

Machinists and metalworkers who need to create counterbores for M8 socket head cap screws in steel, cast iron, or non-ferrous metals. It is suited for use on drilling machines and milling machines with a cylindrical shank.
