  • Patent number: 8342781
    Abstract: A drill body for chip removing machining, including a rotationally symmetrical envelope surface and front and rear ends between which a center axis extends, around which the envelope surface is rotatable in a predetermined direction of rotation. A head is formed in the front end that includes two cutting edges, each one of which includes a first part edge and a second part edge. The first part edge is included in a central tip part having a front end portion situated along the center axis. The second part edge extends between a peripheral end point positioned along the envelope surface and a radially inner end point where the second part edge transforms into the first part edge. The two first part edges converge at a positive nose angle (?) in an axially forward direction, and the two second part edges diverge at a negative angle (?) in the axially forward direction.
