Drill Sleeve and Socket

Drill Sleeve and Socket Points : Drill Sleeve and Socket Tapered shank drill has to be well cleaned ahead of putting it in the drill press spindle. Look at the shank of the drill to create sure to it is no scratched or nicked. A broken or nicked shank will not fit perfectly in the spindle and will cause the drill to wobble. The tan of the drill should be in the same position as the slot in the spindle; a quick upward push fastens the drill in the spindle. The slot holds the tang and turns the drill with the spindle so to the drill cannot slip. If the taper shank of the drill is too small to fit the spindle, place a drill sleeve over the shank of the drill. Be sure that the drill covering is not scratched or nick.
