Compact 0.8mm Pivot Drill from Tamiya 74132

The Tamiya 74132 Fine Pivot Drill Bit is a small but reliable tool for RC technicians tackling fine assemblies. With a 0.8mm tip and 1.5mm shank, the Tamiya 74132 excels at producing accurate holes for screws, body posts, and delicate fittings on models.

Features RC Builders Care About

Size: 0.8mm diameter designed for precise, minimally invasive drilling.
Shank: 1.5mm shank compatible with common hobby pin vises and micro drills.
Application: Ideal for plastics, thin composites, and other light modelling materials.

Best Practice When Drilling Small Holes

Clamp or hold parts firmly and use a backing surface to prevent blowout. Move slowly and keep the bit cool by pausing between passes when tackling thin or brittle plastics.

Will this bit break easily?

Small bits are fragile if misused; avoid side load and sudden force. With steady drilling and the correct speed the Tamiya 74132 will give good service life.

Can I use it for starter holes before tapping?

Yes, the 0.8mm diameter can serve as a pilot hole for tiny screws, but verify screw thread size before drilling to ensure correct fit.

Is a special chuck needed for the 1.5mm shank?

No special chuck is required; most hobby pin vises and micro drill chucks accept a 1.5mm shank. Make sure it is tightened to avoid slippage.
