Introduction

• DM thermal drill bits are designed for forming deep, durable threaded sleeves without chips. The standard bit extrudes a ring, and the flat bit removes it for flush surfaces. These bits greatly improve production efficiency and precision. Used in automotive parts, aerospace devices, stainless steel furniture, heaters, lighting equipment, plating plants, and coolant piping.

  
  

  

Key benefits

• Guide to Choosing Thermal Friction Drill Bits

  Thermal friction drill bits come in two main types: standard round-mouth and flat-mouth (planed) designs.

  Standard Type: Forms an extrusion sleeve while also creating a raised collar on the surface.

  Flat Type: Produces the same extrusion sleeve but simultaneously removes the surface collar, keeping the surface smooth.
