Monaghan Drills Optimize Chip Evacuation

Monaghan Tooling Group introduces MK Tools’ four-fluted Rambo Speed Drill series of solid-carbide drills, which are said to cut short-chipping material three times faster than traditional solid-carbide tooling. Available in standard sizes from 6 to 20 mm, 4 × D or 6 × D, with through-coolant or non-coolant fed designs.

Standard models feature four-flute geometry with a 30-degree helix angle for optimal chip evacuation, and 130-degree-point self-centering geometry for precision holemaking in materials such as carbon steel, cast iron, grey cast iron, alloys and other short-chipping materials. Manufactured from premium carbide feedstock with the latest generation of CNC grinding machines, each Rambo tool features a chiseled cutting edge for more precise centering. MK Tools Speed Drills from Monaghan Tooling Group are well suited for high-speed applications where efficiency is key, including connecting rods, injection pumps, wheel carriers, guide wheel shafts and more.

With original OEM regrinding, including coatings, Rambo Speed Drills deliver new drill performance and a low cost-per-piece throughout their long service life. All MK Tools standard drills feature GTX coating, a multi-layer aluminum chromium nitride coating that reduces reaming resistance for longer tool life and better chip evacuation. This (and other advanced coating options for optimum performance, new tools and regrinds) is performed in-house to reduce lead times.
