Drilling alloy steels and super alloys is demanding. High temperatures and abrasive conditions can lead to rapid tool wear, reduced drilling efficiency, and frequent tool changes.
In a performance test for difficult-to-machine materials, Addison used the ADDCUT SPECIAL SHINE Drill - an HSS M42 drill with gold oxide finish, designed for higher heat resistance and wear resistance.
Result: ADDCUT SPECIAL SHINE delivered 10% higher drilling performance compared to other leading competitor drills, with improved cutting efficiency in stainless steel 316 and alloy steels.
For manufacturers working with tough materials, the benefit is clear:
• Higher drilling efficiency
• Improved wear resistance
• Reliable machining in difficult materials
• Reduced downtime and tool replacement
When the material gets tougher, tool performance matters even more. ADDCUT SPECIAL SHINE is built to support demanding drilling applications with greater consistency.
