Can the pagoda drill bit drill through steel
Update:2024-01-30

1、 The characteristics and application range of pagoda drill bits


Pagoda drill bit is a multi blade metal drill bit suitable for drilling large and shallow holes. It has a larger number of blades, so compared to a single blade drill, it can provide a smoother operating experience and is faster and easier to drill.


However, it should be noted that pagoda drills are not suitable for all types of metal materials and drilling requirements. Generally speaking, it is more suitable for materials such as thin plates, alloys, and aluminum with a drilling depth of no more than 3-5 times the diameter. For steel plates with a thickness exceeding 10mm, or superhard materials such as stainless steel and titanium alloy, pagoda drill bits have poor performance.


2、 Can you easily drill through the steel plate


Drilling through steel plates requires consideration of various factors, such as the hardness, thickness, and surface treatment of the steel plate. Based on the characteristics and applicability of pagoda drill bits, we can conclude that it is feasible to use pagoda drill bits for drilling when the steel plate thickness is small and the hardness is not high. However, if the drilling depth is very deep or the steel plate hardness is high, it may not fully meet the requirements.


Of course, if you need to perform extensive drilling work on harder metal materials, a professional hard alloy drill bit is a more suitable choice.


3、 How to better use pagoda drill bits


When using a pagoda drill bit for drilling, the following points should be noted:


1. Choose a suitable rotational speed. Generally speaking, the lower the rotational speed, the longer the lifespan of the drill bit;


2. Using lubricating oil can reduce the heat generated by friction and prevent premature wear of the drill bit;


3. During the drilling process, sufficient pressure needs to be applied to ensure that the drill bit can smoothly cut the material;


4. Pay attention to regularly cleaning the debris and oil stains inside the drill to avoid sticking the drill.


Conclusion


Whether the pagoda drill bit can drill through steel plates is feasible under certain conditions, but it needs to be evaluated based on factors such as steel plate material and thickness, and a suitable drill bit should be selected. For harder materials that require a large amount of drilling, a professional hard alloy drill bit should be a better choice.
