Review: Excellent drill bit! - Worked excellent, went right through the 1/8 stainless I was drilling multiple times without dulling.
Review: Used with Hougen magnetic drill - Used the drill bit on the Hougen magnetic drill. Used 2 Hougen 2608 twist drill adapters. #1 Modified 2608 Twist Drill Adapter with Set Screw by broaching a 1/4” hex to accept the hex shank. It has the correct height to replace the annular drill bit used to position the magnetic drill onto the target center punch. #2 Modified the Hougen 02608 ADAPTER-ASSY 1/4" SHANK DRILL by installing a 1/4” OD brass tubing and boring the ID with a sliding slip fit for Pilot Pin, 3/16" Diameter for 1" Depth Cutter Hollow-Core Cutter (McMaster Carr #3124A81). The centering jig is placed on the hole center punch location then locating the pin on it. The magnet on the drill is powered up forcing the magnetic drill to align. The pin is forced down by an internal spring used to eject the slug. The setup demonstrates a practical and effective modification for accurate hole centering with a magnetic drill and annular cutter. Description and Function • The Hougen 02608 ADAPTER-ASSEMBLY has been modified by adding a 1/4” OD brass tube, then re-boring the inside diameter to provide a slip fit for a 3/16” diameter pilot pin.[desertcartaws] • This allows for precise placement of the pilot pin inside the hollow core of a 1” depth annular cutter. • The centering jig is first placed on the target center punch mark, and you then use the pilot pin to locate dead center before powering the magnet. • Once the magnetic base is energized, the entire drill is drawn into alignment, ensuring perfect centering relative to the punch location. • The spring-loaded pin, originally meant for slug ejection, doubles here as a tactile alignment guide—automatically pushing the pin down to the workpiece for location confirmation. Machinist Advantages • This modified adapter system integrates seamlessly with the usual Weldon shank interface. It allows quick changeover between centering, drilling, and annular cutting without demagnetizing or disturbing machine setup.[desertcartaws] • By using a slip-fit pin in combination with a spring, you achieve consistent and repeatable alignment—an important benefit for production runs or precise one-off jobs. • The approach is especially valuable for jobs requiring concentricity or post-drilling operations where repositioning error must be minimized.
