Dual drill bit?
I want to drill a piece of 3"IPS (3.5"OD) Sch. 80 wall steel pipe so
that a 2"IPS (2.375"OD) pipe can go through it and also have the hole beveled for welding, is there such a drill available for purchase. |

No. There are stepped drill bits available. Most of them have the larger step ground square, like a counterbore, but you can find some with angled steps. Or have them ground that way by a sharpening shop. Those will cut a hole plus a bevel, or countersink. They would work fine on a piece of flat plate. On a piece of pipe, though, all they would do is bevel the very top of the curve. 2.375" is a pretty good sized drill. And it's tough to drill through a piece of pipe without the bit grabbing. You might consider a hole saw instead. John Martin |

Hole saw. Then 4" grinder for bevel.

Sounds like a core drill / Cole drill. Yea plasma fine cut
edge but it might be messy - grind out and then weld. If a drill was used then the hole would be cleaner. Just wish I knew what IPS meant. Inches per second ? Inside ??? ID ok - IPS ?

Dual drill bit?
gunner, I don't think any kind of custom bit will chamfer the hole the way
he wants on an intersecting cylinder. "Gunner Asch" wrote in message ...

You can have any sort of tool like this ground by any decent cutter/tool grinder. Probably cost about $250 including the stock drill they will grind down. Gunner "Pax Americana is a philosophy.

Not with an even chamfer around the hole. Nope. You are indeed correct. It could be done on a CNC mill with helical interpelation (sp?) but not with a single hand tool, other than a die grinder.

We substituted a plasma cutter head on a robot welding arm to do
production run quantities of 3/8" aluminum plate cones intersecting with 4" schedule 40 aluminum pipe. That was a nasty set of angles! But it sure was nice to let the welders ask for a little bit more or less bevel in a specific spot, tell the robot operator, done deed.
