Questions about this item
How often should the three-flute cutting edges on this 19/64 drill be resharpened or replaced?
Resharpen when the three-flute edges show wear; the 19/64 diameter can typically be reground several times before replacement is needed.
What diameter tolerance limits hole accuracy during a long production run with this 19/64 tool?
The 19/64 inch diameter governs the tolerance stack-up; hole size will drift once the three-flute margins wear beyond the drill’s manufactured tolerance band.
Does the 19/64 three-flute design run cooler than a two-flute drill during continuous aluminium drilling?
Three flutes evacuate chips faster in aluminium, reducing friction and heat build-up during extended drilling cycles.
