Long Reach Drills are suitable for all general purpose drilling where extra reach is required.
Long Reach Drills are not designed to drill deep holes.
Maximum hole depth must be less than the flute length (FL) of the drill.
Deep hole drilling requires the use of a Bordo Long Series Drill, Bordo Extra Deep Hole Drill or Bordo Auger Bit depending on the material being drilled.
135° Split Point (crankshaft point)
Split point is self centering reducing the need for end thrust.
The 135° point provides superior performance when drilling harder steel materials.
In most situations it will produce thicker chips minimising work hardening of the cavity.
Faster penetration reduces abrasion and friction along the cutting edges.
Black Finish Drills (also called blue finish) achieve their distinctive colour by steam tempering, a thermal process resulting in a porous tool coating.
This surface helps to keep lubricant on the tool, particularly important on the cutting edges, thus reducing friction and cold welding.
The result is increased tool life.
Black finish tools are generally recommended for ferrous applications where the oxide layer aids chip flow and heat dissipation.
The Bordo range of Self Feeding Wood Bits are ideal for drilling large diameter holes in soft woods for plumbing and conduit penetrations and a wide variety of other applications.
7/16″ hex shanks to suit drills with 1/2″ (or larger) chuck.
Precision milled shank which eliminates wobble and runout.
Spurs on the outside diameter cut holes cleanly and accurately.
Dual inside cutting planes shave hole radius for clean, smooth holes without pressure.
Fored in one piece from high carbon steel for maximum strength under the toughest drilling conditions.
Sutton Tools TiNite® jobber drills are for high performance drilling. Lasts up to 6 times longer than standard HSS drill bits. For drilling metal & tougher alloy steels such as steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, aluminium & cast iron.
Sutton Tools Heavy Duty Cobalt jobber drills are industrial quality for drilling materials that have high hardness and tensile strength such as cast iron, bronze, hard steel & stainless steel. These drill bits feature a thick core for increased rigidity in hard materials.
