Champion Cutting Tool ipac system provides you with professional grade cutting tool combinations of high speed steel plug tap and Brute Platinum high speed steel twist drill designed for electrical, plumbing, mechanical contracting, welding, machine shop and home maintenance. Brute Platinum XL5 jobber length twist drills outperform standard "drill bits". You will get faster hole penetration and more holes per drill. Each twist drill is provided with a unique combination of premium high speed steel, geometries and NOMO (Nitride on Margin Only) surface treatment. This combination of treatment inables Brute Platinum twist drills to penetrate multiple 300 and 400 series stainless steel, austenitic stainless steel, mild and hardened titanium steel alloys, carbon steel and softer steel materials like copper alloys. Nitriding is the best substitute for cobalt drills and still has flexibility to avoid shattering. With the precision ground 135 degree split point tip there is no need to predrill pilot holes. Brute Platinum twist drills will bit right into the material avoiding the walking effect in common 118 degree twist drills. The tapered web geometry in each twist drill provides faster penetration of the material. Our matching 308 series HIgh Speed Steel Tap creates new threads and cleans up damaged threads. Champion high speed steel taps are plug chamfered with 3-5 threads for easy starting. Ground threads will achieve close tolerances for safe, secure fastening. Operated in hand tapping wrenches or production tapping heads for general purpose tapping in professional settings. These taps are supplied in standard "H" limits that will provide an adequate "class of fit" for standard tapping applications.
