These topics have been at the forefront of new drill development at Mapal. Following on from the success of the Tritan-Drill Steel, which is highly cost-effective even in difficult drilling situations, Mapal has new developed new drills for even greater benefits for the end users.
The deep hole drill was developed for hole diameters from 1 to 2.9mm and through the newly designed chip flute and special face geometry, very high feeds and cutting speeds are possible. Furthermore, the deep drill has a coated head that ensures optimal chip removal.
For the Mega-Drill-Hardened, the micro grain carbide substrate and precise geometry of the tool have both been specially developed to machine hard materials up to 65HRc. The new carbide substrate and its innovative coating ensure extended tool life and performance.
On the Mega-Speed-Drill-Inox, a new groove profile has been developed for reaching drilling depths up to 12xD. The drill features a chip gullet that increases in size toward the shank and as a result, chips do not jam in the drill flutes. The chip flutes have also been finely ground to a mirror finish to ensure that swarf evacuation is extremely efficient.
The ability of the QTD drill to locate the entry point with pinpoint precision in unstable conditions significantly increases wear resistance and tool life.
