Why do you need to follow the recommended speeds when using Drills?

Adhering to the recommended drill speeds for the application area is essential for a good reason: it ensures optimal results in terms of accuracy, quality and tool durability.

When the drill speed is too high for the surface, it can cause damage to the material, such as cracking, splintering or warping. But not only that.

In addition to degrading the application surface, it can lead to overheating of the tool, premature wear of drills and accessories leading to loss of accuracy.

On the other hand, if the speed of rotation is too low, it will reduce the efficiency of the drill and increase the time required to complete the task, premature wear of the tool, and costs. Dynabrade solutions are optimized to improve performance and reduce costs.

Dynabrade recommends specific speeds for different materials and drill diameters. These recommendations are based on testing and experience to ensure the best possible results. Here is our chart:
