This product comes with a brochure. It includes one 12-24 drill/tap bit made of stainless steel. The bit is crafted from strong high-speed steel, which offers excellent heat and abrasion resistance, ensuring top - notch performance when working with stainless steel. Its optimized core design cuts down on torque and increases the bit's lifespan. The split - point tip allows for quicker penetration and stops the bit from wandering during drilling. With a longer bit length, it can drill through materials up to 1/4' thick. The titanium nitride coating helps the bit run cooler, drill faster, and last longer. Specifications: Size is 12 - 24. It's suitable for stainless steel, mild steel, aluminum, brass, copper, fiberglass, and plastics. The maximum material thickness it can handle is up to 1/4' thick (3 gauge).
Using this drill/tap bit is easy. First, make sure your workpiece is securely fixed. Then, select the appropriate drill speed according to the material you're working with. When drilling, apply steady pressure to ensure a smooth and straight hole. Remember to use lubricant for better results, especially when working with harder materials like stainless steel. As for maintenance, after each use, clean the bit with a brush to remove any debris. Store it in a dry place to prevent rusting. If you notice any signs of wear, such as a dull tip or reduced performance, it might be time to replace the bit.
