Drilling a Steel Stack with the HPX Drill for Steels (Part 2)

You asked, we answered! We're putting the HPX Drill to the test again with a stack of varying steels - this time to drill more holes and show you what the drill tip looked like after we were done. If you missed the original video, check it out here: Drilling a Steel Stack with the HPX Drill for Steels Kennametal's HPX solid carbide drill for steels features a straight cutting edge that reduces build-up and chipping on the cutting edge and margin land. The patented HPX point provides excellent self-centering capabilities, reduces thrust and enables precise center chip formation. 2 margin lands provide stability, reduce friction. Up to 3 times higher cutting parameters, saving machining time and freeing up capacity. Ultra-high polished chip flutes reduce friction, improve chip evacuation and increase tool life. A continuous chip-flute cross-section reduces vibrations and reduces cutting edge chipping. MQL-ready! All shanks fulfill the DIN 6535 and 69090-03 requirements for minimum-quantity lubrication.
