on the geometrical shape of the drill head. Both the
profile and the sharpening must be matched to the
workpiece material. The profile is defined when the tool
is manufactured. Although regrinding may change the
cutting geometry, the profile should remain the same.

Used for angled entry or exit. Large back taper,
for shrinking materials such as types of alloys and
stainless steel. Large coolant gaps between pads.

suitable for crankshaft and other forged materials.
Profile A Recommended for accurate hole straightness.

Profile H

Suitable for cast iron (usually coated) and aluminum alloys.
Can be used for cross drilling, angular entry or exit and
for interrupted cut. Large coolant gaps between pads. Recommended for all nonferrous and cast iron

Profile I

Excellent size control, for high precision hole tolerance.
Used for cast iron and aluminum alloys.
Used for aluminum and brass for best hole finish.
For intersecting holes and interrupted cut or when extra
outer diameter support and burnishing is required.
