Pro-Lok SB06 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Why does the Pro-Lok safe bit have a negative rake angle instead of a standard drill point?
The negative rake angle plus a shortened chisel edge is what keeps the carbide tip alive in hardplate. A conventional positive rake bit digs in and chips out on hardened plate; the negative rake scrapes rather than bites, so the tip resists failure and cuts more effectively. Pro-Lok also diamond grinds the tip for sharpness.
2) What size bit is the Pro-Lok SB06, and will it fit a standard drill chuck?
The SB06 is a 1/4 inch diameter bit with a 6 inch overall length, so it seats in any chuck that takes a 1/4 inch shank, including the chucks on standard safe drill rigs.
3) Is the Pro-Lok SB06 a carbide bit or a cobalt bit?
Carbide. The tip is tungsten carbide, 6.4 mm, which is what lets it cut hardplate. Cobalt HSS bits will burn up on hardplate; that is the distinction that matters when you are choosing a bit for a safe job.
4) How do I order the Pro-Lok safe bit, and is there more than one version?
One configuration: model SB06, the 1/4 inch by 6 inch bit. Order by the SB06 model number from Pro-Lok.
5) Does the Pro-Lok SB06 come with a drill rig or mounting hardware?
It is the bit alone. The SB06 is a single 1/4 inch by 6 inch carbide-tipped bit; the drill rig, the mount, and any coolant or lubricant are separate items you supply.
