Our peck feed drills are a unique category unto
themselves. These drills drill a short distance, then
retract from the hole to clear the chips and dissipate
heat, and then return to the hole and drill again, and
repeat this in-and-out motion until the process is
finished. This pecking motion gives the drill its name.
This is a unique advantage in the drilling of
deep close-tolerance holes, especially in stacks of
dissimilar materials.
With conventional drilling, drilling through aluminum
into materials such as titanium extracts chips of the
titanium out of the hole, which scratches the softer
aluminum and deteriorates the hole quality. But by
using the interrupted stroke of the peck drill, the
chips are smaller and are far less likely to create
problems.
This also reduces heat considerably, because the
drill is not in the hole continuously, building up heat.
Each time the drill retracts from the hole, it helps to
dissipate heat, significantly reducing distortion and
metallurgical change in the material.
Because of their heat reduction capabilities,
our peck drills have also been found to be highly
productive in manufacturing environments that do
not allow any type of lubrication or coolant.
Equal Drill Time
Our HT Series Peck Feed Drills define state of
the art in one shot, close tolerance hole drilling with
portable tools.
During each peck, the peck timer circuit on
competitive models combines the time to rapid
advance, drill and retract. As you can see in
the accompanying illustration, actual drill time
is progressively reduced as the hole depth is

Peck Drilling
Peck drilling produces smaller chips (swarf) which are
