Abstract:
1. A stop for being arranged on a drilling, milling, or countersinking tool for machining a workpiece, wherein the workpiece has a workpiece surface, and wherein the drilling, milling, or countersinking tool comprises a cutting section, the stop comprising a contact surface and a connecting element, the stop configured such that when it is arranged on a drilling, milling, or countersinking tool and positioned for machining a workpiece: (1) the contact surface contacts the workpiece surface once a predetermined machining depth in the workpiece is reached; (2) the connecting element: (a) is in direct sliding contact with the cutting section, (b) positions the stop relative to the cutting section, and (c) reduces or prevents transmission of torque from the cutting section to the stop, so that friction between the contact surface and the workpiece surface can prevent relative movement between the contact surface and the workpiece surface; and (3) at least part of the contact surface is radially outside the connecting element relative to a center axis of the tool.
