Helical Thread Inserts
Thread inserts are used to replace stripped out or damaged threads
in most metals including aluminum. They are made from high quality
stainless steel wire, with diamond-shaped cross section, wound to
the shape of a spring thread. The insert, which is larger in diameter
than the tapped hole, is allowed to spring back, permanently anchoring it
into place. Because it is bigger, the insert has greater area to hold in and is
stronger than the original threads. The inserts compensatory action shares the load over
the entire bolt and hole, thus reducing stud feature, and increasing holding or pull out
strength. The insert system consists of stainless steel helically wound precision inserts,
high quality HSS taps and metal installation tools. Inserts are available in both individual and
kit form.
Features:
• Creates superior threads with greater holding power
• Safer on heavy duty applications
• Quick and easy to use
• Suitable for new applications requiring strong

threads
• Simplifies change-over from metric to U.S. threads
• Interchangeable with other brands of helically
wound inserts
• Provides stronger and more efficient threads Each kit consists of an HSS tap,
than other inserts inserting tool and a supply of inserts.
• Less down time due to replacement Kits are sold in quantities of one.
Installation Procedure:
Drill out old threads, Tap hole for insert Install the helical
including any broken with tap provided in thread insert and the
bolt or stud. the kit. job is done!

Speeds and Feeds for Drill Bits
The speed of a drill bit is usually measured in terms of the rate at which the outside or
periphery of the tool moves in relation to the work being drilled. The common term for this is
Surface Feet per Minute (SFM). The relation of SFM and Revolutions per Minute (RPM) is
indicated by the following formula:
RPM = 3.8 x SFM
Drill Diameter in inches
The most economical speed for operating a drill bit will depend on variables, some of which
are:
1. Composition and hardness of material being drilled.
2. Depth of the hole being drilled.
3. Use of cutting fluids.
4. Type and condition of drilling equipment.
5. Quality of holes desired.
Speeds shown in the accompanying table of cutting speeds include a range in feet per
minute. In most drilling situations it is usually better to start with a slower speed and build
P-9
up to the maximum after a trial hole may indicate the drill bit can be run faster.
The following information provides widely recommended drill bit speeds in feet per minute
for a wide range of materials. These speeds give the user a good starting point but may be
adjusted to slower or faster depending on the variables listed previously and the resulting
performance. The optimum speed must be established through trial.
Standard drill bit feed information is provided below to help establish the proper feed rate of
different diameters. This is particularly useful when a drill press, etc. is being used.
Drill Bit Feeds
DIAMETER
OF DRILL BIT
(INCHES) NORMAL FEED HEAVY FEED
from 1/16 to 1/8 .001 - .002 .002 - .004
from 1/8 to 1/4 .002 - .004 .004 - .008
over 1/4 to 1/2 .004 - .008 .008 - .016
over 1/2 to 1 .008 - .016 .016 - .024
over 1 .016 - .024 .024 - .032
The following charts convert surface feet per minute to revolutions per minute for frac-
tional, letter and number drills. To use these charts, locate the drill bit diameter to be used
on the left side of the chart and the desired surface feet per minute at the top (reference
the following chart for the material to be drilled). The point where the two columns meet will
give you a good guide regarding the revolutions per minute to be used as a starting point.

Nitro-Carb Drill Bits
SUPER PREMIUM HIGH PERFORMANCE DRILLS
These heavy duty drill bits are recommended for use in work hardening grades of stainless
steel and other tough metal drilling applications. Heavy duty construction and the nitro-
carburized, hi-molybdenum tool steel means:
• Substantially longer cutting life
The nitro-carburized flute has an increased
Rockwell hardness.
• Cuts harder materials
The flatter point takes a smaller chip. More
torque is directed to a smaller area. This
allows drilling into materials with hardness
of over 30 on the Rockwell “C” scale.
• Stops drill walking
The split point design gives accurate
starting without the use of a center punch.
P-19
• Holds tighter hole size
The split point design is self centering.
This limits the normal oversize drilling
characteristics.
• Outstanding quality appearance
The rich amber gold color sets it apart
from commodity cutting tools.

Step Drills
Step Drills are in a class unto themselves. Step drills include
as many as 13 different hole sizes in a single bit, eliminating
the need for an entire tool box full of specific sized drill bits.
And its built-in differences result in a tool that cuts faster
and cleaner and gives true, round hole every time.
Single flute design means a true hole and
allows greater speed control on soft material.
Double fluted drill bits tend to chatter and
vibrate at low feed rates and high RPM's,
resulting in a less than round hole. This can

Hi-Alloy Taps
Changing The Way Holes Are Tapped
Before the Hi-Alloy “Gun” Tap it was said that all taps broke before they wore out. But now
that has all changed. Called a “Gun” tap because of the way it “shoots” the chips out ahead
of the tap, its design is radically different from that of the ordinary tap. This change is most
noticeable when tapping stringy materials, where before the flutes would become loaded
and cause the tap to break. The Hi-Alloy “Gun” Tap design makes it possible to use shallower
flutes which translates to a stronger tap. This all adds up to a tap which requires less
power to drive and, for some classes of work (through holes and blind holes with sufficient
clearance at the bottom, most notably), are much more economical to use than ordinary
hand taps.

Variable pitch bi-metal hole saws offer new features and benefits.
A high speed cutting edge is welded to a tough alloy back for a
totally shatter-proof product. Mandrels are interchangeable with
other name brands.
• Variable pitch design reduces tooth chipping, and strippage
resulting in a smoother, cleaner cut and up to three times
longer life
• Large, strong teeth dissipate heat increasing saw life
• Positive rake angle means faster cutting by up to 35%
• Gullet design ejects chips for improved efficiency
• High concentricity for safe control
The end result is fast, smooth cuts and longer life in aluminum, brass, copper, cast iron,
stainless steel, wood and plastic.
Hints for Application
The centering of the saw is done by the pilot drill (1/4" diameter). The drill should extend 1/8"
P-47
beyond the teeth of the hole saw. Use TOOL COOL when sawing in metals. An exception is
cast iron, which is cut dry. Use kerosene instead of oil when cutting aluminum. TOOL COOL
allows chatter free work and gives longer life. Avoid overheating of the saw. Uniform pres-
sure should be applied to all teeth in order to avoid teeth breakage.
