One Hundred Percent Precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA perfectly drilled hole might be one of the least noticeable details on a scale model. Until it's in the wrong place. The Tamiya 74133 Fine Pivot Drill Bit is designed to keep those little surprises to a minimum, combining a precise 0.9 mm cutting diameter with a reinforced 1.5 mm shank for accurate, controlled drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe secret lies in its clever stepped-shank construction. By making the shaft thicker than the cutting tip, Tamiya has created a drill bit that sits securely in a compatible pin vise while minimizing wobble and drilling deviation. The result is cleaner, more accurately positioned holes and improved resistance to breakage compared with conventional fine drill bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), the bit features a carefully finished cutting edge for reliable performance in plastic, wood, brass, aluminum, and steel. Its cutting diameter is clearly marked on the shank, making it easy to identify the correct size when working with several drill bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor WWI aircraft enthusiasts, 0.9 mm is particularly useful for preparing mounting points for landing gear components, installing metal locating pins, and creating openings for miniature fittings. It's equally valuable when modifying cockpit components, reinforcing assemblies, or fabricating custom parts for scratch-building projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a 6.5 mm flute length and a recommended maximum drilling depth of 6.0 mm, this precision drill bit is particularly suited to controlled, shallow drilling operations. A protective plastic storage case keeps the cutting tip safe between modeling sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause precision isn't about making the smallest possible hole.
