Welcome to AZ Metals, where you are guaranteed to receive exceptional service.
Drilling steel or any other metal is a complex yet fundamental process in metalworking industries worldwide. Drilling refers to creating strategic holes in metal, enabling the assembly, fastening, and customization of metal parts for various applications.
The process requires skills and the right tools to achieve perfection; thus, it is not a process you should attempt on your own. Visit us at AZ Metals, and let us handle your project expertly.
Metal drilling is a machining process that utilizes a rotating drilling machine that carves a hole in the workpiece. Sounds easy, does it not? However, it isn’t what it looks like.
A drill bit is used to carve a hole. A drill bit is designed so that, when rotated at a great speed, it scoops out the metal effectively, leaving a clean, clear hole behind. Almost every industry that works with metal uses sheet metal drill services for assembly, customization, and other purposes.

Metal drilling is more complicated than it sounds because it requires a steady hand and skill to carve a hole in the metal at a precise location. First, we study the metal that needs to be drilled, its thickness, hardness, and other attributes so that we can pick the right metal drill bit. This comes with experience, and our trained employees know which drill bit is best for the project.
The metal is marked for the holes, and a carbide, titanium, or cobalt drill bit is attached to the machine. Depending on the thickness and hardness of the metal, the rotation speed of the drilling machine is set. As the drilling machine is lowered, the drill bit makes contact with the metal, and its design allows careful scooping of the metal, creating a perfect hole.
We pride ourselves on employing cutting-edge machinery and selecting the appropriate drill bits for metal drilling in steel. Unlike some, we understand that the efficacy of metal hole drilling lies not only in state-of-the-art machines but also in the choice of drill bits. Tailoring our approach to your project specifications, we ensure the use of the right drill bits for optimal results.
