Fine 0.8mm Drilling Tool from Tamiya 74132

The Tamiya 74132 Fine Pivot Drill Bit is a compact, precision tool for RC hobbyists who need neat, small holes. With a 0.8mm cutting diameter and a 1.5mm shank, the Tamiya 74132 handles detailed drilling tasks commonly found when working on bodies, mounts, and trim parts.

Essential Features for RC Modelling

Size: The 0.8mm diameter gives clean, accurate holes for small fasteners and pins.
Shank: The 1.5mm shank fits most pin vises and hobby hand drills used by RC enthusiasts.
Application: Suited to plastics and other light materials frequently used in RC kits and upgrades.

Tips to Get Clean Holes

Run the drill at moderate speed and support thin panels to avoid cracking. Use light, steady pressure and a fresh bit for repeatable results when installing small screws or adjusting trim pieces.

Is this suitable for metal parts?

This bit is intended for plastics and other light materials; it is not recommended for drilling metal. For metal, use a hardened steel bit designed for the job.

Will the 1.5mm shank work in my pin vise?

Most pin vises and small hand drills accept a 1.5mm shank, but check your chuck capacity to confirm a secure fit before use.

How do I avoid melting thin plastic when drilling?

Use a low to medium speed, lift the bit regularly to clear swarf, and consider cooling with intermittent breaks to prevent heat buildup and deformation.
