What are Solid Carbide Drills?
Solid carbide drill is today a widely used tool in many drilling operations, such as making a hole in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous and high-temp materials. In CNC machines, it is generally the first choice.
Why Carbide drilling?
Comparing to HSS material, HSS(Co) is only used if there are specific circumstances that make a solid carbide drill unsuitable. Carbide drills provide faster cutting rates, longer tool life, better positional and dimensional accuracy and improved surface finish. Shorter cycle times and tighter tolerances translate into maximum machine utilizations, better part quality and optimum hole making cost savings
The advantages and disadvantages of solid carbide drilling
-
Higher productivity
-
Longer tool life
-
Higher hole accuracy and dimensional stability
-
Better positioning accuracy
-
Better hole surface quality
-
can drill harder materials
-
Lower cost per hole with unit cost

1. TBDrill-XP™ Series Solid Carbide Drills for General Purpose
One of the main advantages of using general purpose drills is their versatility. They are capable of drilling through a wide range of materials. In addition, general purpose drills are also available in a variety of lengths, diameters, and shapes to meet the needs of different drilling applications. normally the lengths of 3xD, 5xD and 8xD with cooling holes and without cooling holes are stocked by us. Overall, TBDrill-XP™ multi-purpose and general-purpose drills are a reliable and efficient tool for drilling holes in a variety of materials, and are very suitable for small and medium-sized shops.
The TBDrill-XP™ series
win " the 2023 Product Innovation Award Of China Cutting Tools Association"
TBDrill-XP™ drills feature a double cutting edge design,the cutting edge have been specially treated, making them more stable without losing their sharpness. The design of big chip evacuation space and polished chip evacuation flute benefit good drilling preformance.In addtion, the cutting angle design increases the hole quality and cross-hole drilling will be better and quieter. In additional, The drills with through holes will generate less forces in the material when they come through, this also increases the tool life and makes the cutting edge less likely to crumble or flake.
2. TBDrill-PF™ Series Solid Carbide Drills for High Preformance
TBDrill-PF™ High performance carbide drills are made from a hard and durable carbide material that is able to withstand high levels of heat and wear. These drills are designed for use in a variety of materials, including hard steel, stainless steel after heat treatment, hard cast iron, and high temp/nickel alloy, Ti alloy and are ideal for drilling precise, accurate holes in a variety of applications. With the high performance capabilities,TBDrill-PF™ series drills are able to drill faster and more efficiently than normal drill bits. In addition to their durability and performance, TBDrill-PF™ carbide drills also offer a longer lifespan than other types of drill bits, making them a cost-effective choice for drilling projects.
3. TBDrill-DPF™ Series Solid Carbide Drills for Deep Hole Drilling
The TBDrill-DPF™ series deep drills is a next-generation drill for deep hole drilling, features stable chip control and improved strength to further enhance efficiency of deep hole drilling. The spiral-flute and "X" sharp cutting edge design reduced cutting resistance during high efficiency drilling. Improved chip evacuation makes it possible to reduce spindle load fluctuation, ensuring stable, long tool life. The TBDrill-DPF™ series provides excellent guide performance due to the unique design when compared to the conventional drill.To provide the cutting edge with an optimum coolant supply, the TBDrill-DPF™ drills possess a maximized coolant duct profile. It ensures an efficient coolant supply to the cutting edge as well as excellent chip evacuation,chip packing and a subsequent jamming of the tool is effectively prevented.

4. TBDrill-AF™ Series Solid Carbide Drills for Non-Ferrous metals
For non-ferrous metal machining chip formation with chip evacuation are both of vital importance.The non-ferrous metals (aluminum and copper etc.) having lower melting point than other metals causes welding to easily occur in machining. That dulls the cutting edge of the tool and lowers the surface finish and chip evacuation and increases the cutting load which causes unexpected chipping and breakage of tools.
TBDrill-AF™ series drills with sharp cutting edge minimizes welding. In addition, the design for better chip control and X-shaped thinning increases machinability and chip evacuation drastically. TBDrill-AF™ drills increases your productivity by stable machinability in machining of non-ferrous metals.
