Maykestag Solid Carbide Stub Drill 8mm Short Series DIN 6539 ALUNIT

Precision 8mm short-series stub drill manufactured from solid carbide (VHM), featuring Maykestag's ALUNIT® coating, Type N geometry, a 118° point angle and a drilling depth of up to 3xD. Manufactured to DIN 6539 for accurate, rigid and dependable drilling in a wide range of engineering materials.

The Maykestag Code 6147 is a professional solid carbide stub drill designed for short, accurate drilling operations where rigidity and dimensional control are important. Its compact DIN 6539 short-series construction helps minimise tool deflection, while the solid carbide cutting material provides the hardness and stability required for precise machining.

The 8mm drill features a 118° point angle, two cutting edges and Type N geometry. Maykestag specifies a maximum drilling depth of 3xD for this series. The Code 6147 version is distinguished by its ALUNIT® coating and is supplied without internal coolant channels.

What is a stub drill? A stub drill is a shorter, more rigid drill than a conventional jobber-length drill. Its reduced overall and flute length help limit bending and vibration, making it particularly useful where accurate hole positioning, good dimensional control and stable drilling are required.

Product highlights

  • Solid carbide construction: Manufactured from VHM solid carbide for excellent rigidity, dimensional stability and cutting-edge strength.
  • ALUNIT® coated: Code 6147 is the coated version of Maykestag's DIN 6539 solid carbide stub-drill range.
  • DIN 6539: Manufactured according to the dimensional standard specified by Maykestag for this short-series drill.
  • Short-series design: Compact construction provides greater rigidity and helps reduce tool deflection during drilling.
  • Type N geometry: General-purpose drill geometry suited to a broad range of machinable materials.
  • 118° point angle: Conventional point geometry for controlled and accurate drilling.
  • 3xD drilling depth: Designed for drilling holes up to three times the drill diameter under suitable machining conditions.
  • Two cutting edges: Conventional two-edge drilling geometry provides balanced cutting action.
  • Precision tolerances: Cutting diameter tolerance h7 and shank diameter tolerance h6.

Why Choose Maykestag?

Maykestag cutting tools are developed for professional machining applications where accurate geometry, controlled tolerances and dependable cutting performance matter. Clearly specified tool materials, dimensional standards and application recommendations make it easier to select the correct tool for a particular machining task.

The Code 6147 range combines solid carbide construction with a rigid short-series design and ALUNIT® coating. For precision drilling with this 8mm version, rigidity and correct machining conditions are especially important because run-out, feed rate and tool holding can have a significant effect on tool life and hole accuracy.

Designed for Accurate Short-Hole Drilling

The short DIN 6539 construction keeps the cutting point close to the tool holder, helping improve rigidity and reduce deflection. Combined with the 118° point, Type N geometry and solid carbide construction, this makes the Code 6147 particularly well suited to controlled drilling where accurate positioning and consistent hole quality are required.

What is ALUNIT® coating?

ALUNIT® is the coating specified by Maykestag for the Code 6147 solid carbide stub-drill series. This coating distinguishes Code 6147 from the corresponding uncoated Code 6146 range and is applied to the cutting tool for demanding professional drilling applications.

For best results, the coating should be used together with the correct cutting speed, feed rate, workpiece material and machine setup. Accurate tool holding and minimal run-out help support dependable tool life and consistent drilling performance.
