Number & Letter Gauge Drills:
Gauge drills are still in common use in the U.S. In the past, they were popular elsewhere, but now have been largely discarded in favour of metric sizes. When using a gauge rather than a standard measurement of size the user has to refer to a table of gauge sizes. For example, to drill a hole which is 10 thou (thousandth of an inch .0010) bigger than a 1/8 inch bolt, the user must first work out that 1/8 inch is 125 thou, so the hole size needed is 135 thou, and then must look up in a reference book which gauge drill bit is closest to this diameter - a number 29. Number gauge sizes are similar or equivalent in some respects to, but different from, American wire gauge. Number gauge is usually used from size 80 (the smallest) to size 1 (the largest) followed by letter gauge size A (the smallest) to size Z (the largest). Number gauge is actually defined down to size 97, but these smaller sizes are rarely encountered. It happens that as the technology for making small drill bits and drilling small holes has become more available, metric drills have become the norm.

Dormer Solid Carbide Drills

The new Dormer MP-X range of multi-application carbide drills are cost effective, high performance drills that offer high productivity and supreme value for money. A wide range of materials can be machined using a minimum number of drills, to reduce stock-holding and associated costs.

MP-X Solid Carbide Drills

Dormer MP-X solid carbide drills deliver the following benefits and features:

Benefits
? Exceptional value with no compromise on quality.
? High productivity.
? Excellent hole quality.
? Availability.
? Reduced tooling costs.

Material
Micro-grain carbide for an excellent combination of hardness and toughness, resulting in high wear resistance and longer tool life.

Coating
Multi-layer titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN) coating gives:
? Improved stability of cutting edges.
? Outstanding wear protection.
? High hardness properties.
? High toughness and oxidation stability
? Longer tool life and higher productivity.

Flute Geometry
Strong web design gives excellent crosssectional strength and facilitates chip evacuation.

Point Geometry
140 point angle with good centring capabilities and low thrust force design, suited to multiapplication drilling.

Multi-Application
Multi-application drilling across a wide range of materials, including:
? Carbon and alloy steels.
? Stainless steels.
? Cast iron.
? Aluminium.
? Magnesium alloys.
? Copper.

Suitable for Regrinding
The quality of design will allow consistently high levels of performance and tool life after the product is reconditioned, providing further cost reduction benefits.

Kennedy® Brazed Tip Turning and Boring Tools

Manufactured in three standard grades. (All sizes are nominal). Manufactured to ISO DIN BHMA Standards.
P40:
Roughing to heavy roughing of steel and steel castings using heavy feeds and low to medium cutting speeds. Also used under unfavourable conditions, particularly where intermittent cutting is involved. This grade is also suitable for planing operations and for machining manganese steel.
P30:
Carbide tipped tools are suitable for heavy duty turning and boring on all classes of steel. Suitable also for interrupted cutting and machining at low speeds and heavy feeds.
K20:
General-purpose tools for most applications. Ideal for machining cast iron, non-ferrous metals, bakelite etc. Combines wear resistance with toughness when rough turning at moderate cutting speeds. Suitable for high feed rates.

Sherwood Taps

Sherwood HSS Taps are the general purpose option for thread cutting in most materials including steel, some stainless steels, cast irons and non-ferrous materials such as Aluminium, Brass and many others.

Manufactured with precision ground flutes for producing accurate thread forms, Sherwood Taps are available in all the popular thread forms and as straight Flute `Hand` Taps in 3 leads, Fluteless, Spiral Flute, or Spiral Point Machine Taps and also Long Series.

Sherwood Tap dimensions conform to ISO529 apart from NPT Forms which conform to ANSI 94.9. Straight Flute and Fluteless Taps are manufactured with a standard Bright Finish whereas the Machine Taps have an Oxidised Finish for best results dissipating the heat build-up associated with these applications.

Thread Forms are Class 2 medium fit tolerance.

For all technical and dimensional specifications please refer to our catalogue.

Plug Taps Metric Coarse Ground Thread HSS

The Sherwood Plug tap is used last after the Taper and Second tap have been used, when threading blind holes it cuts threads to the bottom of the hole.

Indexa-Seiki Tapping Collets

Slipping clutch type. To suit Indexa-Seiki tension and compression type tapping chucks.
