Frequently Asked Questions

What is the FORMDRILL FD0740L drill bit used for?

The FORMDRILL FD0740L is a collar-forming friction drill bit used to create threaded holes in thin materials without pre-drilling or tapping. It forms a collar and taps 5/16"-24 UNF threads in one operation, ideal for sheet metal, tubing, and automotive applications.

What are the specifications of the FORMDRILL FD0740L?

The FORMDRILL FD0740L is a long collar-forming friction drill bit for 5/16"-24 UNF threads with a 7.4 mm drill size. It is manufactured by FORMDRILL under MPN FD0740L and is designed for thread formation in thin materials without pre-drilling or tapping.

Where to buy the FORMDRILL FD0740L worldwide?

How to install the FORMDRILL FD0740L drill bit?

Install the FORMDRILL FD0740L in a drill press or CNC machine at high RPM. Apply steady axial pressure to the workpiece; friction heat softens the material, forming a collar. The bit then taps 5/16"-24 UNF threads in one pass. No pre-drilling or tapping is required.
