Classification and Characteristics
Round-mouth thermoforming drill bits, also known as carbide round-mouth thermal drill bits, are the standard type of thermoforming drill. Their unique feature is that when the drill bit penetrates the workpiece and stretches to form a bushing, it leaves a raised ring on the workpiece surface. This boss design is ideal for use in thread sealing or as a nut washer.
Tungsten Carbide flat-mouth thermo forming drills, a variant of carbide thermoforming drills, are unique in that they penetrate the workpiece and, after stretching to form a bushing, simultaneously remove the raised ring on the workpiece surface, ensuring a smooth finish. This type of thermoforming drill has applications in various fields, such as thread extension, welding, multi-layer heat exchangers, bearing supports, and screw connections in stainless steel construction or metal furniture.
Furthermore, depending on the required workpiece thickness, carbide flat-end thermoforming drills are available in short and long versions. Short drills are suitable for penetrating workpieces with a thickness ranging from 0.8mm to 3mm, while long drills are suitable for penetrating workpieces with a thickness exceeding 3mm up to 12mm.
