Reid Select Carbide

Combination drills and countersinks are short, double-ended drills used to produce a shallow conical or center hole, typically on the end of workpiece to be held between centers before turning in a lathe or cylindrical grinding.

Countersinks expand the top of an existing hole in a workpiece to allow countersinking screws to install flush with the surface of the workpiece. This helps prevent the workpiece material from swelling when a screw is inserted and tightened down.

Outside micrometers are used for measuring the thickness or outside diameter of small parts or fittings with high accuracy. Similar in appearance to a C-clamp, the object to be measured is clamped between the anvil (the stationary end of the clamp) and the spindle (the moving part of the clamp). The clamp opens and closes by turning an internal screw. On analog micrometers, measurement is calculated by reading the lines and numbering system that appears on the thimble and sleeve.

Drill bushings or drill guides are installed into a drilling jig to guide, support, and position a drill or other cutting tool during metalworking tasks.
Also known as drill guide bushings, or drill jig bushings these machine tools and their accessories work well with your end mills, and digital micrometers.
