Installation & Usage Tips

1. Secure the workpiece using a vise or appropriate clamping system.
2. Select the correct gauge drill size based on the wire diameter you intend to run.
3. Set the drill press or hand drill to the recommended RPM range for the material.
4. Apply steady, moderate pressure—avoid forcing the drill to prevent tip wear.
5. After drilling, clear any chips and inspect the hole for smoothness before threading wire.
6. Store drills in a dry, protected container to maintain cutting edge integrity.
