10. drilling in metal
For maximum performance, use high-speed steel bits for metal or steel drilling.
a. When drilling metals, use light oil on the drill bit to keep it from overheating. The oil will prolong
the life of the bit and increase the drilling action.
b . Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit from slipping off the starting point.
c . Maintain a speed and pressure that allows cutting without overheating the bit. Applying too much
pressure will:
– Overheat the drill
– Wear the bearings
– Bend or burn the bits
– Produce off-center or irregularly-shaped holes
