Drill for Heat-Resistant Alloys SGS Series

■ General Features SGS type drills for heat-resistant alloys employ a sharp cutting edge to reduce heat during drilling (reduces cutting force) and provide a long, stable tool life.

J

■  Features and Applications Long tool life ● Combination of optimised cutting edge design and dedicated grade significantly reduces wear. ● Minute honing (edge treatment) amount and special thinning shape reduce cutting force. This reduces cutting edge breakage. ● Perfect for drilling Ni-based heat-resistant alloys (Inconel/Waspaloy/Hastelloy).
