Overview: The document is a catalog from SGS Tool Company, focusing on high-performance solid carbide drilling solutions, specifically the Hi-PerCarb and ICe-Carb drills. These tools are designed for precision and efficiency in high production environments.

Hi-PerCarb Drills Features:

• Double Margin Design: Enhances accuracy, surface finish, stability, and rigidity.
• Engineered Edge Protection: Increases edge strength and reduces fatigue, allowing higher feed rates.
• Specialized 145° Notched Point: Self-centering, improves chip control, and reduces drill thrust and deflection.
• High Performance Flute Design: Facilitates efficient chip transport and increases strength for aggressive drilling.
• Ti-NAMITE A Coating: Enhances resistance to heat and wear, extending tool life.

ICe-Carb Drills Features:

• Engineered Cutting Edges: Precisely ground for efficient chip creation and control, with edge honing for longevity.
• High Penetration 140° Point Geometry: Split point design for improved penetration and accuracy.
• Coolant Through Design: Maintains consistent operating temperatures and improves tool life.
• High Performance Flute Design: Reduces friction and machine loads, improving chip evacuation and surface finish.
• Polished Ti-NAMITE A Coating: Enhances wear resistance and tool longevity.

Performance Comparison: The document includes data showing SGS ICe-Carb drills outperform competitors in condition and precision after extensive use.

Technical Specifications: Detailed specifications for various drill sizes, including tolerances, cutting diameters, and lengths, are provided for different series and applications.

Coolant Recommendations: Emphasizes proper coolant application to enhance tool performance, including optimizing pressure and position, maintaining cleanliness, and reducing nozzle size to increase velocity. Graphs illustrate recommended coolant pressures by drill diameter.

Speed & Feed Recommendations: Tables provide speed and feed recommendations for various materials, specifying surface feet per minute (sfm), meters per minute (m/min), and feed rates (f) for different hardness levels and drill series.

Key Takeaways: Proper coolant application and adherence to speed and feed recommendations are crucial for maximizing tool life, improving surface finishes, and achieving efficient material removal rates.

Procedures:

• Reduce speed and feed when drilling harder materials.
• Reduce feed rates on angled, radiused, or uneven surfaces, starting with a spot face.
• Pilot drills or spot drills are generally unnecessary with Hi-PerCarb or ICe-Carb tools.
• Peck drilling is not usually recommended with carbide drills.

Recommendations: For optimal performance, adhere to specified procedures and consider material hardness and surface conditions when selecting drilling parameters.
