TwistSFeed Drill Family

March 25, 2021
3-Flute Replaceable Tip Drills

Ingersoll’s new TwistSFeed drill family features a 3-flute quick-change tip with an upgraded clamping mechanism designed to maximize productivity. Unlike conventional 3-flute solid carbide drills, TwistSFeed utilizes a unique, self-centering point to ensure optimal performance, precision and stability for all applications. 

TwistSFeed reduces costs by improving tool life as well as achieving higher productivity due to multiple flutes along with new IN2205 coating designed for steel and cast iron applications. The clamping mechanism allows for the simple replacement of drill tips as well as accommodating multiple tip diameters per drill body facilitating economical stock management for end users.

Tips are available in diameters from .6299"-8288" and bodies include 3xD and 5xd L:D ratios.
