<p>A drill bit (1) having a central axis (A) has a tapered cutting end (2) part terminating in a drill tip (3) at one end of the drill bit (1) and a shank (4) extending from an opposing end of the drill bit (1). A plurality of flutes (5) are formed in the drill bit (1) and helically extend from adjacent the shank (4) into the cutting end part (2). Each flute (5) has a flute leading side wall (6) and a flute trailing side wall (7) and a land (9) defined between each of the flutes (5) and extending to the tapered cutting end part (2). Each land (9) has a leading land margin (10) defining a secondary cutting edge (11) with the flute trailing side wall (7) of a leading adjacent flute (5). Each land (9) also has a land relief (12) extending from the land margin (10) toward a trailing adjacent flute (5). Each land (9) still further has a land transition region (12) blending the land relief (12) into the flute leading side wall (6) of the trailing adjacent flute (5). In any cross sectional plane extending perpendicular to the central axis (A) through the lands (9), the land margin (10) of each land (9) lies on a circle (B) extending about the central axis (A) and each relief (12) and each land transition region (13) lies entirely within the circle (B).</p> |
