In order to bore round holes in different jobs, drill and drill machines are used. The tool used for the boring hole is called a drill. The machine with whose help the drill is moved is called drill machine. The method of boring holes with a drill and drill machines is called drilling.
A drill bit is a cutting tool used to make or enlarge holes in solid metal. These are used with a manual-operated drill or drill press equipped with a chuck. These drilling machines use a key to tighten or loosen the clamp.
A drill is one of the best accessories in a workshop and is required in almost any project. But, you can't use any drill until you understand what drill you want to use for your work. Drill bits are manufactured in a wide variety of types of sizes.
This article will help you to understand drill bits so you can choose the right drill bit to make your job easier. Apart from this, we have written about the different tools used in all the workshops like punches, saws, pliers, and wrenches you can check these out as well. Now, let us understand the types of drill bits in detail.
The materials for the manufacturing of twist drills are as follows:
High-speed drills are more widely used due to their greater cutting efficiency. In addition, cemented carbide tipped drills are also employed in mass production work.
Following are the types of drill bits:
This type of drill is generally made by beating slender sticks of high carbon steel. Their cutting edge is ground and then hardened and tempered. It can be made easily in any shape or size. These are made in different sizes after forging them. These drills are very cheap.
It is not used for boring holes in iron. It is usually used for boring holes in carpentry work and soft metals. The cutting point is kept at a 90° angle. On those solid metals where other drills get broken, this drill can be used after properly hardening and temping.
A straight fluted drill consists of grooves or flutes running parallel to the drill axis. A straight fluted drill can be thought of as a cutting tool with zero rakes. This type of drill is not available in standard practice as the chips do not automatically pop out of the hole.
They are essentially used in drilling brass, copper, or other softer materials. In drilling brass, the twist moves faster than the rate of the drill feed, and the drill digs into the metal. There is no such difficulty in using a straight fluted drill.
Nowadays, twist and thick drills are used for boring holes quickly, clean, and of accurate size. These are usually made of high-speed steel and thin rods of alloy steel.
Then cutting edge is made on the bottom end and a twisted groove is cut on its body from top to bottom which is known as a flute. Because of the twisted flute, it is called a twist drill. It contains the main parts such as tang, shank, body, point, and neck.
This type of drill is best and stronger. Two flutes opposite to each other are cut in this drill. It is used almost in all types of work.
For certain special jobs, this drill is used. There are more than two flutes in this drill. Its distinguishing feature is that because of its bigger cutting edge, the hole is bored quickly and it is clean.
It is also known as a combination drill. On both its ends a cutting point is made and its middle portion is plaint. Drilling and countersinking can be performed simultaneously with this drill. It is used for fastening the lengthy job from center to center on the lathe machines and also to do center drill in a rod. It has been shown in the figure.
Countersinking is done by drilling holes in the places where counter head screws are to be installed. In this way, the head job of the screw fits well.
This is a multi-fluted drill in which four flutes are cut. Its cutting point is grinded at 60° or 82°. In the figure, this type of drill and a screw fitted in a hole bored by it has been shown.
When Allen screws are fitted counterboring is done with this drill. These types of screws are also fitted like the counter screw on the surface of the job. It is used to enlarge a hole. Boring in a hole is done from the upper side up to the height of the screw head.
For fitting this type of screw the surface of the job remains similar to the plain surface. The screw heads do not pose any hindrance in their functioning.
A noteworthy point is that in countersinking the hole is cut slanting at 60° or 82 ° angle from the top whereas in counterboring the hole is made deeper in the increased size up to the height of the screw head.
The drill used for counterboring is also called a counterboring cutter. A pilot is built on its lower side. This pilot sets in the hole and helps in straight counterboring.
There is a need for coolant or lubricant at the time of boring hole with a drill which ensures that the drill point does not lose its capacity to cut after becoming hot.
Apart from ordinary drills, there are other drills in which a hole is made from shank to cutting point for providing lubricant up to the cutting point.
These are very delicate drills. These are used for boring very minute holes in the spray pump nozzle, store nipple, etc. Their size ranges from 0.0086″ to 0.0984″. These are available in numbers.
This is a different type of drill. Its shape is like a side and a face cutter is used in milling works. There are four flutes made on it. Its upper part is 1/3″ per foot in taper. For using it a mandrel is required. These are often used for enlarging a hole.
If you want to drill holes on sheet metal, you'll need a step drill. Its appearance looks like a descending ladder. However, their working process costs a bit more than other drill bits, so if you work with sheet metal regularly, this is what you need.
The design of the step bit allows you to drill holes of different diameters firmly. Another cool thing these bits make is de-burr holes, so you can clean out the waste material.
These types of drill bits are special twist drill bits used to drill holes for installing wires for security systems and for entertainment purposes. These drill bits look like auger bits, they are up to 18 inches long. You can use them to drill through plaster, wood, and some masonry.
There is a small hole in the tip of the bit. After drilling the hole in the surface, you need to insert the wire into the hole of the tip and force it through the hole. Take it from the opposite side and pull.
These drill bits are used where brick, stone, and concrete work is going on. As hard as these bits are, you need to replace them almost regularly as they wear out.
If you want to drill into the concrete for a long time, it causes the tip to be melt. You can reduce that problem by periodically changing the drill out of the concrete.
Unless you've got a job in professional construction, you probably can't use these rivet bits. These types of drill bits are specifically designed to drill tiny rivets into pieces of thin sheet metal.
If you want to drill a hole on thick and dry wood, you can make it using an auger drill bit. It makes a hole in the woods very easily, so you don't have to apply as much pressure. These have a screw tip that causes the hole and helps to pull out the bit, creating a clean hole.
You can use these on thicker wood as many of these bits are up to18 inches in length. The large flute in its form supports the channel by letting the dust into the hole. Some types have a hollow center that allows for even more chip removal.
These types of drill bits consist of a carbide tip to drill into certain tile, reducing the chance of chips and cracks. The various types of tile bits are intended according to the kinds of tiles.
The hammer bit is used to drill a precise hole in a concrete slab that is required for complete and accurate relative humidity.
This type of drill bit is used for drilling through glass, plastic, composite, brick, marble, and hollow brick. It has greater resistance to high temperatures, is perfect for drilling into deep material, and speeds up dust removal.
If you want to make clean and smooth holes in wood, then this type of drill bit is right for you. This bit allows precision cut holes. It has a pointed tip that helps to keep the bit exactly where you need it.
There is no flute on it and you have to take it out regularly to clean it of chips and dust. Several applications need a drill press with this type of drill bit.
You can use this type of drill bit where it is necessary to install door hardware or create a wiring pass-through. The hole saw creates a useless plug and a side cut-out in the saw cylinder pushes it out.
In addition, you can use an attachment to center the hole and use a pilot bit to stabilize the blade. Small hole saws include a built-in shank rather than a pilot bit. Using a bi-metal hole saw, you can make holes in both wood and metal.
If you want to cut a wooden plug together or make a hole in the wood, then you will need to use this type of drill bit. It helps to have woodworking that reaches professional work.
The drill bits are manufactured to drill holes in different materials. This involves various types of wood, metal, plastic, ceramic tile, porcelain, and concrete. Drill bits are also available for steel, aluminum, copper, cast iron, sheet metal, fiberglass, brick, vinyl flooring, and more.
According to their diameter, drill bits are manufactured in many styles to aid in specific tasks. You can make any surface (depending on thickness) using step drill bits. Also, you can produce holes in high tensile metals by using a cobalt-type drill bit.
