{"product_id":"drill-stop-21","title":"Drill Stop #21 (5\/32\") - Spring Loaded Depth Stop for Sheet Metal Drilling, Black","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis drill stop fits #21 drill bits (0.159\" \/ 4.04 mm), the standard drill for 5\/32\" solid rivets and 5\/32\" clecos, and the tap drill for 10-32 threads.

Only the length of drill you leave exposed can enter the work, so the bit cannot go any deeper than you set it. As you reach depth, the rounded steel nose settles on the panel and the coil spring takes the lunge out of the breakthrough, instead of letting the chuck slam into the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5\/32\" holes usually mean heavier structure: spar caps, fittings and thicker stacks where the point of the bit is buried and you are drilling by feel. The stop puts a hard limit on depth so the bit stops where you want it, and the spring soaks up the breakthrough so the chuck never reaches the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrilling for 5\/32\" blind rivets? CherryMAX and pop rivets in that size call for a #20 hole, so use the \u003ca href=\"\/pl-pl\/products\/drill-stop-20\"\u003e#20 drill stop\u003c\/a\u003e instead.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pilot Gear","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45872059547757,"sku":"CDS-21","price":9.14,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/2041\/4573\/files\/CDS-21.webp?v=1789636078","url":"https:\/\/www.pilotgear.com.au\/pl-pl\/products\/drill-stop-21","provider":"Pilot Gear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
