PCB drills are precision micro cutting tools designed to fabricate micro vias and through-holes on printed circuit boards. These holes enable electrical interconnection between PCB layers and serve as mounting holes for electronic components, widely used in consumer electronics, automotive electronics and communication hardware production.
Against the rising cost of solid tungsten carbide, Zhuzhou Century Tool has developed innovative carbide-tipped PCB drills with steel shanks.
This hybrid structure retains the superior cutting performance and wear resistance of tungsten carbide at the drill tip, while replacing the full carbide body with high-strength steel shank, greatly optimizing overall cost-effectiveness without sacrificing basic machining requirements.
Q: What material is the steel shank of your carbide-tipped PCB drill?
A: The shank adopts forged alloy steel, featuring outstanding toughness and anti-fracture performance under high-speed drilling conditions.
