Sandvik Coromant has launched its powerful deep hole machining concept for the STS system, the CoroDrill 808.

Among its many features, this product is equipped with optimized pad design for good hole finish, unique edge preparation for increased chip breaking and a reinforced periphery insert corner for added security and reliability.

Suitable for diameters from 15.60 to 65.00 mm (0.614−2.559 inch) and tolerance demands of IT 9, CoroDrill 808 is capable of producing perfect holes, regardless of the component material.

Well suited for close tolerance holes, CoroDrill 808 is a fit for the energy segment, for example, machining in heat exchanger plates. Cladded materials such as low carbon steel with Inconel, used for these types of applications, are difficult to machine due to tricky chip-breaking and tool life maintenance. Due to a specially designed geometry and grade technology, CoroDrill 808 produces superior close tolerance holes even in the toughest conditions.

In addition, this drill is available as a stock standard item with 24 hour delivery.

CoroDrill 808 drills are equipped with a fully traceable dot matrix. It is a two-dimensional patterned array, used for storage and display of various types of information, for example, the measurement protocol. Such protocol includes data on diameter and run out of the drill, making dot matrix a very safe tool for product identification and traceability.
