Ruko Core Drill Ø17 mm – Solid Carbide, 50 mm Cutting Depth, Quick IN Shank

The Ruko Core Drill Ø17 mm is a solid-carbide core drill designed for demanding industrial drilling tasks in steel, cast iron and highly alloyed materials, featuring a Quick IN shank for rapid tool changes.

• Solid carbide construction for long tool life
• 50 mm effective cutting depth
• Quick IN 18 mm shank for fast tool change
• 5 cutting edges for efficient chip removal

Durable construction for consistent industrial performance

The solid carbide construction delivers high hardness and wear resistance that sustains drilling precision under heavy loads. Intended for industrial environments, this core drill resists abrasion and thermal stress better than high-speed steel alternatives, which translates into longer tool life and fewer tool changes. The robust design supports stable hole quality in demanding materials without frequent replacement, providing measurable uptime benefits for production workflows.

Stable core geometry and smoother cutting forces

As a core drill, the tool removes an annulus of material rather than the full diameter, which reduces cutting volume and can lower cutting forces compared with conventional full-diameter drills. The combination of a 50 mm cutting depth and 5 cutting edges enhances material evacuation and surface finish, while the cutting geometry limits vibration. These features result in more repeatable hole dimensions and reduced risk of overheating in high-alloy steels and stainless grades.

Quick IN shank for efficient workshop integration

The Quick IN 18 mm shank permits fast changes between operations and simple integration into systems that support quick-change holders. Reduced setup time complements the tool’s durability, contributing to improved overall equipment effectiveness. The shank format also ensures secure clamping and concentricity, which helps maintain hole accuracy across batch runs and repetitive tasks in fabrication or maintenance settings.

Typical applications and practical guidance

The drill is engineered for heavy-duty applications such as railway components, structural fabrication with Hardox / Weldox 400, stainless steels (V2A, V4A), cast iron and other high-chromium or highly alloyed steels. For best results, match the drill to suitable machine capability and coolant practice; for precise feeds and speeds adapted to specific materials and machines, consult the technical advisers at Metav Werkzeuge. Proper clamping and steady feed reduce risk and extend tool life.
