XD technology (XD stands for extremely deep) from Walter AG enables holes of up to 70x diameter to be drilled in one operation without pecking, in steel, cast iron or non-ferrous metals. Until now, the standard range of XD drills was up to 30xD, with the user receiving longer tools as special versions. This limit is now being pushed upwards, because, with immediate effect, the 40xD drilling depth with the D40 X-treme is available in the standard range. The tool is based on the most recent production technology and has an advanced TiALN-tip coating for a long tool life. Additional features include internal coolant channels for optimum heat dissipation and reliable chip evacuation. The latter is also supported by polished flutes. Four lands keep the drill exactly on its intended course. All features ensure a high level of process reliability, even with angled hole exits or cross holes.
