porakärki
Porakärki is a Finnish term that translates to "drill bit" in English. It refers to the cutting part of a drill, a tool used for creating holes in various materials. Porakärki is designed with specific geometries and cutting edges to efficiently remove material as it rotates. The shape and material of the porakärki are crucial for its effectiveness and depend on the material being drilled. For instance, wood requires a different type of porakärki than metal or concrete. Common materials for porakärki include hardened steel, high-speed steel (HSS), and carbide. Specialized coatings can also be applied to porakärki to enhance their durability, reduce friction, and improve heat resistance. The design of a porakärki can vary significantly, including point angles, flute designs, and the presence of spurs or pilot points, all of which influence the drilling process and the quality of the resulting hole.
