Thread: FUBAR - again - How to drill carbide?

Tweet

Cleveland Twist Drill lists their EZY OUT as being made of tool steel, not carbide. Greenfield lists theirs as tool steel also.....couldnt find a
carbide ezy out in the typical catalogs.....Sears stuff is ABSOLUTELY not
cabide....carbide is heavy, you notice it when you pick up a carbide drill or end mill.

Cool - if they're tool steel, the carbide bits should get it.

Thanks - Bert

Hope you can set it up in a mill or drill press where you can
control the perpendicularity and pressure....use some cutting
oil on the bit. You just wish they sold an EZY OUT EZY OUT!!!

If it's broken off in a cast iron part, use a gas axe. The torch won't hurt cast iron, even if the ezee-out doesn't cut out the broken bolt will, releasing the ez.
