drills for stainless steel
I need to drill 30 odd 4.5mm holes in a stainless steel pipe; I'm
drilling a small pilot hole ~ 1mm first . Usual type blunt too quickly 4 holes ! Pipe wall thickness is only 1mm and I thought I'd get away with it. Carbide tipped and cobalt seem to be recommended . Will tile drills do ? Any experience or advice ? Brian -- Brian Howie |
