Sherwood Jobber Drills Steam Tempered HSS

Suitable for drilling steel, cast steel, alloyed and unalloyed, grey cast iron, spheroidal iron, sintered powder metal, German silver and graphite. Manufactured to BS328/DIN338RN.

Black Finish (W-Finish)
This is the most common surface finish and is the result of a steam tempering operation in which steam is passed over the product during a controlled tempering cycle, producing a black oxide layer. Black tools are generally recommended for ferrous applications where the oxide layer aids chip flow, helps to dissipate heat by retaining some coolant on the tool surface and also helps to prevent the tool from staining.

Dormer Machine Taps

Dormer machine tap ranges have been designed for use with a high quality floating tool holder. For synchronous tapping on CNC machines with a rigid tapping cycle, Dormer SynchroFlex tool holders are recommended for a precisely defined minimum compensation in order to maximise machine performance. This is particularly important for larger sizes of spiral flute taps.

Available in spiral point for through holes and spiral flute for blind holes with 45 spiral angle. The three radii profile, with a constant rake angle all along the flute, is specially designed to give an optimum performance and chip evacuation in materials being threaded.
Surface Treatment
Special gold finish with bright flutes/thread, or steam tempering (blue) guarantee a smooth cutting action with less build up on the cutting edge.

Manufactured from HSS-XS1 premium quality vanadium powder steel and HSCo for superior toughness and edge strength, to give a high resistance to wear and long tool life.

All taps are available in Metric thread form initially. Thread forms Metric Fine, UNC, UNF and G will be stocked from September 2010.
Short Thread Length
The short thread length means low torque and better chip evacuation.
Thread Depth
Threading to depths of up to 2.5 x Diameter.

Sherwood® Spotting Drills Solid Carbide

Sherwood 90° solid carbide spotting drills are designed for close tolerance hole location, Carbide spot drills are more wear resistant than HSS spot drills. Suitable for continuous production on Aluminium, Plastics, Free Cutting Steels, Cast Iron, Titanium and some Aerospace materials. The stability of Carbide makes the tool more rigid and is less likely to deflect, maintaining a higher level of accuracy. Operators should note that continuous heavy shock loading may cause the tool to fail due to its brittleness.

For all dimensional specifications please refer to our catalogue.
