Step Drill Bit and ReamersYour Key to Precision

Slide 2: 

There is some confusion about the role that reamers play when it comes to creating a hole. Those with very little idea about DIY and power tools mistake it for a normal drill bit and believe it can produce the same results.

Slide 3: 

Although a reamer is a great method of ensuring a hole is accurate, it is not a means of creating one. It should only be used to remove small parts of material which suggests that it is only to be used in a clean-up operation.

Slide 4: 

If you want to use a real drill bit to create a perfect hole in any material, take a look at a step drill bit. This unusually designed piece of equipment is narrow at its tip but increases dramatically in circumference the further you go down the drill bit.

Slide 5: 

The step drill bit is normally used for drilling holes in metal but it can also be used on many other materials.

Slide 6: 

It has an unconventional design but can save a huge amount of money because it is effectively several different drill bit sizes in one.

Slide 7: 

Many people who take on projects themselves have toolboxes filled with drill bits of all shapes and sizes; many of which go unused for the most part. The reason why this may be is that changing drill bits to accomplish making one hole can be a bit frustrating.

Slide 8: 

Using a step drill bit, you can eliminate frustration and use one tool to get your hole completed.

Slide 9: 

The normal process when drilling a hole is to create a small primer hole. This is necessary because regular drill bits are too rough on the material if used from the very beginning.

Slide 10: 

This is because a single bit can drill or enlarge holes across an entire counter top or speed up the installation process of most in-home fixtures. The small hole must be drilled and this serves as a starting point for the big drill bit.

Slide 11: 

You can eliminate this step and the use of multiple drill bits and extra time by starting your holes with a step drill bit instead.

Slide 12: 

There is no need for any other drill bit. Simply turn on your drill and start working.

Slide 13: 

The tip of the step bit is small enough to create a tiny hole without damaging the material but as you push through slowly, the various layers on the drill bit come into play.

Slide 14: 

As you continue, the hole will get larger because the drill bit is getting thicker towards the shaft of the drill. The result is a hole drilled to perfection.

Slide 15: 

Reamers are then utilized when it comes to finishing off the hole. Attempting to use this piece of equipment to remove large pieces of material would result in frustration.

Slide 16: 

This tool is designed to put the finishing touches on work, not start from scratch. Using a reamer on large pieces of material may cause the equipment to clog.

Slide 17: 

No matter how good your equipment is, it is always important to read instructions and use properly to avoid any damage.

Slide 18: 

Each of these tools is designed for specific uses and sticking to those uses is the best way to ensure your tools work for you for a long time.
