Fdrill Review

The Fdrill is one of the latest products to hit the power tools market. It’s ease of use and flexibility makes this product hot on the market.
The Fdrill can be used on just about any metal material made from soft brass, aluminum, alloys, steel, and right on through to high grade strength steel.

This accessory will benefit those that drill all sorts of material. Construction workers, or men that love to do "do-it-yourself" work will want to use this type of product.
This accessory is made of high temperature stead tungsten carbides. Thanks to these new stronger materials, it is now possible to use thermdrill on very thin or even thick walled materials.

Basically Fdrill comes in multitude of sizes and variations. You want to make sure to check your material thicknesses before starting the drilling process. There are three basic types of Thermdrill, and that's Cut, Form, and the tap. The Fdrill is a cut version of the drill bit. The great thing about this accessory is that it actually heats the drilling material by the friction of the drill. As the material heats up to a molten state the drill pushes farther in the material. When the drill finally pushes all the way through the material, the drill bits shape helps to form the molten metal into a clean shape collar on the back side of the hole and a clean flush hole on the top side.
The Fdrill is flush style bit which will leave a clean deburring surface on both cut sides of the hole. The hole that is created from this bit will be ready to receive a screw, bolt, or type of fastener without the need to clean or treat the before fastener is tightened.

One of the great features of the Fdrill is the ability to be used over and over with little or no loss of material. Another great feature is not having to clean up the hole after the drill since the thermdrill will do that for you. When you drill a hole with a standard drill bit you are doing nothing more than removing material from the piece. When you use a Fdrill you don't remove any material, you're just moving it around to where you need it, thanks to the shape of the bit.
Like everything in life, there are a few down sides to using these drills. One is that when you use a Fdrill , you want to make sure that you are not ruining the metal by putting the area that was drilled through a heat treatment or that will damage and weaken the metals surface. This would only be the case on some of the more exotic alloys.
One other thing to keep in mind is that you have some lubricants on hand to lube up the Fdrill  about every second to third hole you drill. Just use the recommend manufacturer oils to reduce any damage to your Fdrill.

The Fdrill is a great tool, which makes your life a lot easier when working with metal fabrication.
