WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU DRILL
1.
Type of material to be drilled, Brinnell or Rockwell hardness, material thickness and position should all be
determined to ensure proper selection of cutting tools.
2.
Remove any excessive mill scale or rust from surface to be drilled.
3.
When drilling thin materials, it is recommended that you place a steel plate under the work piece and Holemaker
magnet area to increase magnetic holding force.
4.
Material that has been flame cut may become heat treated and therefore difficult to drill. Avoid drilling near such
areas whenever possible.
