8xd
Universal drills with 8xD drilling depth made of solid carbide
Nachreiner offers various types of metal drills for different applications. Precise adherence to drilling depth is often a crucial factor in production processes in metalworking. To simplify machine control, it is recommended to use 8xD universal drills and other sizes to ensure the desired drilling depth with high accuracy. The drilling depth value is derived by multiplying the respective diameter. For drill holes with identical diameters, you can easily determine the suitable tool for different drilling depths. Common sizes for universal drills from our range include:
In the range of 8xD drilling depth, we currently offer the following solid carbide (VHM) variants:

VHM universal drills 8xD for precise and fast work on stainless steel
When machining high-strength metals such as stainless steel (and materials with similar hardness), the use of solid carbide in metal drills is especially efficient. While many spiral drills are equipped with a carbide tip, due to the softer base material onto which the tip is welded, they do not match the performance or longevity of a true solid carbide drill. VHM tools are always made from a single piece and are essentially solid carbide versions. This means that not only the tip is extremely hard, but the entire body of the drill, including guide lands, is also made of solid carbide. For models with internal cooling, the stability of solid carbide is less affected by the fine cooling channels than with comparable drills made from non-carbide materials. The temperature resistance of solid carbide universal drills with 8xD drilling depth is excellent and can be further enhanced with a special coating if needed. One of the most important features is the outstanding tool life of VHM drills, as well as their higher relative cutting speed, which can significantly reduce processing times in production.
Resharpening service for metal drills and other cutting tools
Many cutting tools can be restored to excellent condition through regrinding when they become worn or dull. Compared to purchasing new tools, this can save you a considerable amount of money, as the lifespan of high-quality tools can be extended despite natural wear. This is also worth considering for sustainability reasons, as manufacturers can reduce the resources used for drill tools. We are happy to refurbish your tools and sharpen them back to their original sharpness. Please inquire about the Nachreiner exchange program for drills, through which you can quickly and conveniently send your drill sets to us without high costs.
