The invention concerns a hard-
metal cutting tip for use on a
drill, particularly on a rock or concrete
drill, including a
drill point (3) extending through an axis of rotation of the drill, primary
cutting edges (6) that slope downwardly on both sides, each composed of a primary land (4) and a primary flank (5), the primary flank (5) forming at the primary
cutting edge (6) a primary lip clearance angle (14) with a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation. To provide a hard-
metal cutting tip that possesses high cutting, feed, bending and
breaking strength and
wear resistance, especially at its outer regions subjected to high
peripheral speeds, the hard-
metal cutting tip is realized such that the primary lip clearance angle (14) formed at the primary cutting edge (6) decreases with increasing distance from the drill point (3).
