The holes don't have to be burr-free but I would like to

minimize the burrs without any secondary operations.



Tom, you can't eliminate the "breakout" burrs. Use the fastest feed you

can to get a clean chip, and you will almost completely eliminate the

burrs at the top of the hole.



Son, de-burring is part of the process. Unless you put a 'waste sheet'

under the material, and drill into it past the shoulder of the bit,

you're going to get burrs. And then only if it's clamped so tight to the

work that there's not a chance of pushing a burr between the sheets.

A sacrificial piece of hardwood be sufficient? How about a drill

bushing under the tube?



Bushing still wont help. That last burr is the result the metal being

torn away from the mass by the downward pressure.



The only way you are going to be burr free is to use a deburring tool.

Which is really not a big deal in Aluminum.

No time for another operation and a smal burr is OK, I just want it minimum.


No time to do the job right/do a quality job.
