titanium drilling...

Recommended Posts

Nasty stuff. As an apprentice, I was always given the titanium panels to be drilled.

Slow speed and press very hard, otherwise too much heat builds up and you fry the bit.

If you do a web search, they say the same things. Place the sheet on a metal plate, if you use a wooden bench top, you will just make a dimple.

If the metal is tarnished, you need to clean this off first, as it is actually harder than the metal.

Wear safety glasses.
