Calculating Spindle Speed for Drilling

Using the Drill Bit Speed Chart

The chart shown in Figure 33 is intended as a guide only. Always follow the manufacturer's speed recommendations if provided with your drill bits, cutters, or hole saws. Exceeding the recommended speeds may be dangerous to the operator.

The speeds shown here are intended to get you started. The optimum speed will always depend on various factors, including tool diameter, drilling pressure, material hardness, material quality, and desired finish.

Often, when drilling materials other than wood, some type of lubrication is necessary.

Lubrication Suggestions

Wood	None
Plastics	Soapy Water
Brass	Water-Based Lubricant
Aluminum	Paraffin-Based Lubricant
Mild Steel	Oil-Based Lubricant

Larger bits turning at slower speeds tend to grab the workpiece aggressively. This can result in the operator's hand being pulled into the bit or the workpiece being thrown with great force. Always clamp the workpiece to the table to prevent injuries.
