Key Features
BF2045 aluminum series: uncoated carbide drill for aluminum and similar non-ferrous or non-metal materials.
200mm extra-long design: provides maximum reach in this BF2045 long drill group.
Wide size selection: multiple diameter options from 4.0mm to 20.0mm help match different hole requirements.
Bright, uncoated cutting edge: suitable for aluminum drilling and clean chip evacuation.
Solid carbide construction: suitable for rigid CNC machines, milling machines, and drill presses.
How to Choose
Choose the required drill diameter from the variant list.
Choose 200mm length only when the application truly requires extra-long reach.
For better rigidity, choose 80mm, 100mm, 120mm, or 150mm length if the shorter tool can reach the hole.
Longer carbide drills require more careful setup, lower runout, and better chip evacuation.
Usage Notes
Recommended for CNC machines, drill presses, milling machines, and other rigid setups.
Handheld electric drills are not recommended. Extra-long carbide drills are hard but brittle, and unstable hand feed, vibration, or runout can cause chipping or breakage.
Use accurate clamping and keep tool runout as low as possible.
Minimize unnecessary tool overhang and confirm that the setup is rigid before cutting.
Use suitable peck drilling or chip-clearing strategy when drilling deeper holes.
FAQ
What materials is BF2045 mainly for?
BF2045 is BB Tool’s uncoated drill series for aluminum, copper, plastics, and similar non-ferrous or non-metal materials.
When should I choose a 200mm extra-long carbide drill?
Choose 200mm length only when the hole depth, fixture, or workpiece shape requires extra-long reach. If a shorter drill can reach the hole, it is usually more rigid and easier to control.
Can I use this drill with a handheld electric drill?
It is not recommended. Extra-long solid carbide drills require stable clamping and controlled runout.
