Drills & Cutters
When the job demands drilling large diameter holes through structural
steel, plate steel, or pipe as quickly as possible, there is only
one way to get it done – Annular cutters from Peerless.
Built to perform on the job site or in the shop, our cutters have
a wide range of applications.
Our Peerless cutters
rely on the proven success and value of trepanning, or broaching,
cutters to make cuts accurately, use less energy and extend tool
life. The cutters are annular, which means they are round and hollow – all
of the cutting takes place on the outer edge of the cutter. By
cutting only the outer diameter of the hole and ejecting the remaining
center as a slug, our Peerless cutters
save time and reduce the cost per hole by saving tools, energy
and man-hours.
Designed for us on magnetic drill bases, drill presses and milling
machines, our cutters are much more efficient than conventional
twist drills. They can also be used on curved surfaces or for interrupted
cutting as well. The results are reamed quality, burr-free holes
in one operation without the time consuming processes of drilling
pilot holes and step drilling.
Our Peerless cutters
feature a unique geometry for fast feed, lower cutting resistance,
greater accuracy, longer tool life and a far superior finish. They
are made out of M2 high-speed steel, the accepted market standard.
Each cutter comes with two flats on the shank so that they will
fit all magnetic drill stands and also on drill presses. Cutters
with carbide tips are also available on special requests only.
Our carbide tips are made from EN34 grade carbide which is very
durable.
We offer a wide range of sizes in both imperial and
metric diameters. They are available in Short Reach- 1” cutting
depth – and Long Reach – 2” cutting depth. The
imperial cutter range runs from 1/2” diameter through 2” diameter
in both Short Reach and Long Reach. The metric cutter range runs
from 12mm diameter through 51mm.
The Future of Drilling has Arrived!

Cutting Tools Designs the Perfect Point Drill®
Casco, WI --The innovative minds at ICS Cutting Tools have recently
designed a completely new and radical drill--the Perfect Point®.
The general form of this point resembles a modified form of a flat-bottom
drill. However, this drill includes a helical or spur-style point
and a special edge chamfer. Together, these elements create a drill
point with six individual cutting edges. This point geometry produces
a unique cutting action that allows these drills to function much
like center-cutting end mills. Rather than effecting a drill's
customary action, aPerfect Point Drill® performs much like
a rigid, multi-flute boring tool. The drill's unique point geometry
gives it a variety of advantages not found with conventional or
specialty point styles. Most notably, these benefits include an
improved cutting action that generates smooth surface finishes
with excellent drilling precision and accuracy. This design also
provides stability while substantially reducing chatter and vibration
that is common with other drill point shapes. These drills combine
the best features of metal and wood cutting drills and are well
suited for drilling holes in a wide range of different materials.
They may be used for drilling ferrous and nonferrous metals, natural
and composite wood products and a range of plastics and similar
manufactured materials. The major design element that makes the
Perfect Point Drill® unique is the overall configuration and
geometry of the drill point. Therefore, virtually any standard
twist drill body style can be furnished with the Perfect Point®.
Although the different drills are most commonly available in standard
jobbers' lengths, they are also available as stub length and taper
length drills and a selection of extended length drills, Likewise,
they are available with several different shank styles, including
standard straight shanks, 3/8" and 1/2" reduced diameter
shanks, and a complete range of Morse taper shanks. A selection
of surface treatments or coating is also available to suit special
drilling situations. The most popular surface treatments for these
drills are black oxide, bright finish and Titanium Nitride (TiN).
However, gold finish, gray finish, Titanium Aluminium Nitride (TiAlN),
Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN) and Zirconium Nitride (ZrN) finishes
are available on request.
