Tormek DBS-22 Drill Bit Sharpening Attachment

Tormek DBS-22 Drill Bit Sharpening Attachment

Your drill bits can now be sharper and last longer than ever before. It will be easier and quicker to drill holes. Your drilled holes will be straighter and dimensionally more accurate. Sharpening your bits with the DBS-22 will make excellent drill bits as good as new and make lesser drill bits better than new, and your bits will last longer before needing resharpening.

The Tormek DBS-22 will handle drill bits from 1/8" to 7/8" in diameter. Why does a Tormek sharpened drill last longer? The beneficial 4-facet point and the high precision sharpening – both cutting edges are sharpened to an exact equal length and symmetrically – make the drill work efficiently and the life of the drill bit is considerably prolonged.

With the Tormek patented attachment for drill bits DBS-22 you can now sharpen your drill bits with the highest precision. The optimal point and clearance angles can be set according to each drilling requirement, which depends upon the drill size and material. You can completely restore worn drills as well as broken drills to a perfect shape.

You create a 4-facet point which gives the ideal cutting performance since the chisel edge gets a point instead of being almost flat as on many drills. A 4-facet point will not walk and the thrust force required is considerably reduced compared to a conventional cone point drill.

A precision sharpened 4-facet point generates less heat and the life of the drill is therefore also prolonged. Independent tests show that a Tormek sharpened drill lasts up to 4 times longer than a brand new conventional drill bit¹.

By working with the laws of physics and cooling the edge continuously, the risk that the steel becomes overheated and loses its hardness or gets micro cracks is eliminated. You have full control all the time and can see how the sharpening proceeds.

Using the DBS-22 to sharpen your bits will give you these benefits and advantages:

• It will be much easier to drill holes quickly
• It will be much easier to drill holes properly
• The holes you drill will be straighter
• The holes you drill will be more dimensionally accurate
• You will be able to drill more holes before resharpening is needed
