performance steel step drill built for speed cutting Purpose and benefit: Precisionengineered for creating clean, accurate stepped holes with minimal rework. Steel construction provides the rigidity and strength needed for speed cutting while maintaining consistent hole quality. Better cutting performance: Finely ground spiral grooves evacuate chips efficiently, reduce material buildup on the cutting edges, and keep the tool cutting consistently through long runs. Protected during storage and transport: Each drill is supplied in a secure plastic package to prevent damage when not in use or while . Compatibility and materials: Designed for use with CNC machines and engraving tools. Suitable for cutting aluminum alloys, PVC, and acrylic materials. Practical advantages: Improves cycle times and hole finish by minimizing clogging and maintaining stable cutting conditions; reduces downtime for chip clearing and tool maintenance. Typical applications Fabrication and panel work: Produce stepped holes in aluminum panels for fasteners, grommets, and cable glands with consistent diameters and clean edges. Plastic and acrylic fabrication: Cut precise openings in PVC or acrylic for displays, enclosures, or mounting features with less chipping and cleaner finishes. CNC and engraving tool operations: Integrate into CNC programs or engraving setups for repeatable steppedhole operations on small to medium production runs. Key attributes at a glance Tool type: Step drill Material: Steel Chip control: Finely ground spiral grooves Packaging: Individual protective plastic package Compatible equipment: CNC machines, engraving tools Suitable workpieces: Aluminum alloys, PVC, acrylic A dependable, nononsense step drill that keeps chips under control, protects the cutting edge during storage, and delivers precise stepped holes across common nonferrous and plastic materials.
