Drill for Heat-Resistant Alloys SGS Type ■ General Features SGS type drills for heat-resistant alloys employ a sharp cutting edge to reduce heat during drilling (reduced cutting resistance) and provide stable and long tool life. ■ Characteristics · Applications ●Stable and long tool life · Combination of optimised cutting edge design and special grade significantly reduces wear. · Minute honing (edge treatment) amount and special thinning shape reduce cutting resistance. This reduces cutting edge breakage. · Perfect for drilling Ni-based heat resistant alloys (Inconel/Waspaloy/Hastelloy). ■ Series Cat.
