Hoffman Estates, IL – BIG DAISHOWA announces the addition of the Sphinx Drinox Pilot Step Drill at 3xd. The innovative design of the tool delivers up to three times longer tool life, three times higher coolant-through output and three times faster drilling.
Available in diameters from 0.70 to 3.00 mm, with intermediate diameters in increments of 0.05 mm, the Sphinx Drinox features several key enhancements:
-
Coolant-through channels
The coolant-through pilot drill features a power chamber in the shank to maximize the coolant output, ensuring a steady flow even with lower coolant pump performances.
-
TiSiN coating
The newly developed ultra-thin coating ensures high tool sharpness, improving chip removal and preventing material from sticking.
-
Proven high-performance geometry
The 90° cutting step and tool head are based on the geometry of proven high-performance tools, which perform exceptionally well in stainless steels, titanium and heat-resistant Ni or Co alloys.
“For those looking to gain an edge in high-stakes drilling applications, the Drinox is the way to go,” says Alan Miller, senior manager engineering. “Sphinx has been a trusted partner for years, and this new release reinforces their reputation for quality and performance.”
