Special Application Notes:
  • For safety and success, always pre-drill the hole with a pilot drill. This is especially true for drilling small sizes less than .078" [2mm].
  • Minimum coolant pressure = 800psi (5.5 MPa).
  • Coolant must have Extreme pressure (EP) Additives.
  • Positive displacement type coolant pump is required.
  • Coolant filter must be less than 5 microns. Fine filtration is necessary to prevent blockage of the Oil Holes.
