Micro Drills with Dragonskin Coating



For high performance and long tool life, new CERATIZIT WTX-Micro High-Performance and High-Performance Deep Hole mini-drills feature the company's Dragonskin coating that controls heat and reduces tool wear.

"Together with the coating, lapped surfaces and patented chip evacuation designs, the solution offers fast, efficient and reliable chip removal," said a company spokesperson. "Spiral coolant holes and a power chamber run the entire length of the drill shanks to deliver coolant directly to the cutting zone."

The spokesperson continued, "Made from an ultra-fine carbide grade, WTX-Micro tools generate precise holes with superior surface finishes and concentricity in challenging material applications, including those involving micro hole dimensions and extremely tight tolerances."

WTX-Micro High-Performance drills range from 0.8 mm to 2.90 mm in diameter and from 5xD to 20xD in length-to-diameter sizes.

WTX High-Performance Deep Hole Drills come in diameters from 1 mm to 2.90 mm and in length-to-diameter sizes up to 30xD. The 5xD version of the micro drill is well suited for use as a pilot drill for the deep hole drills due to its special drill point geometry that is self-centering to eliminate the need for pilot-drilling/center drilling in applications up to 8xD.
