How to choose the right drill bit

Choosing the right drill bit can sometimes be a little difficult. Drilling hard steel or metal you would sometimes be better off with a cobalt drill bit rather then a high speed steel drill bit. Remember the harder the drill bit, the more brittle the drill bit.
High speed steel drill bits are generally the most common for most uses. If you are dealing with a hard wood, sometimes it is wise to use titanium drill bits, because it dissipates the heat better. Keeping the drill bit and the wood cooler during the drilling process. When Hard steel and stainless is an issue, it is usually better to use a cobalt drill bit. And finally depending on the drill motor and the feed and speed rate, a carbide drill bit might do the trick. And within all categories you need to also consider the type of flute or drill point that is needed. Whatever the need we here at Drill bit warehouse have the right product for the job.

Drill Bits for Steel and Aluminum



What drill bit to use? Well the type of flute determines how the chip will flow. At drill bit warehouse they carry both 118 degree fluted and 135 degree fluted drill bits.

Drilling out Broken Bolts and Screws

DRILLING OUT BROKEN BOLTS

I have found that when drilling out broken bolts, screws and easy-outs, DrillBitWarehouse.com has a great set of left handed drill bits. A left handed drill bit has a reverse flute so all you do is put it in a hand drill in reverse and it just makes drilling out bolts so much easier. Sometimes I use a solid carbide rotory burr, if the broken bolt is made out of super hard steel. With a micro-grain burr it actually grinds through it and drills it out. I bought a Set of four extra long carbide burrs and they really come in handy when a long reach is needed.
