    HSS drills should only be used for unstable machine conditions or materials below 500 Brinell hardness. More advanced drills like solid cemented carbide or indexable insert drills can be used for stable machines and harder materials. To reduce vibrations and increase drill lifetime, minimize distances, use only necessary drill length, firmly clamp workpieces, apply coolant at 8-12% mix, and disengage feed rate before breakthrough to avoid drill tip snapping from play/springback.

    DRILLING RECOMMENDATIONS

    HSS DRILL
    Use HSS drills only when you have unstable machine conditions. HSS drills are only
    suitable up to 500 Brinell. If the machine conditions are good, you can choose among
    solid cemented carbide drills, drills with exchangeable heads or indexable insert drills.

    ADVICE FOR REDUCING VIBRATIONS AND


    INCREASING THE LIFETIME OF THE DRILL
    • Minimize the distance to the column and between the drill tip and the workpiece
    • Don’t use a longer drill than necessary
    • Always use metal supports and clamp the workpiece securely
    • Solid and firm table
    • Always use coolant
    • Coolant mix 8-12%
    • Just before the drill breaks through, disengage the feed rate for about a second,
    play/springback can otherwise snap the drill tip. Re-engage the feed rate when the
    play/springback has ceased
