GT-15 Drill Reamer 

The GT-15 Drill Reamer by Gandtrack is a high-performance tool designed for drilling and reaming composite materials with quality and precision. With its innovative cutting geometry, it combines drilling and reaming into a single operation, saving time and improving efficiency for manufacturing in aerospace, automotive, and other composite industries.

Available in both 4 flute and 6 flute designs, the GT-15 Drill Reamer handles a wide range of materials, including carbon fibre, glass fibre, and hybrid stacks like carbon and aluminium.

Why Choose the GT-15 Drill Reamer?

The GT-15 Drill Reamer is engineered to meet the toughest demands in composite material drilling, offering a unique combination of precision, durability, and efficiency.

Key Benefits:

• Drill and Ream in One Step: Combines operations to eliminate the need for separate drilling, opening, and reaming tools.
• Time and Cost Savings: Reduces operational steps, improving production efficiency.
• Versatility: Suitable for manual operations and CNC drilling programs.
• Tight Tolerances: Produces high-quality holes with clean edges and minimal pushout.
• Durable Design: High quality carbide and more cutting edges ensures excellent cost per hole performance.
• Regrind Available: Gandtrack offers a regrind service on GT-15 Drill Reamers

Applications of the GT-15 Drill Reamer

The GT-15 Drill Reamer is ideal for industries requiring precision drilling in advanced materials:

• Aerospace Manufacturing: Achieve high-precision and low tolerance holes in carbon fibre and hybrid materials for aircraft components.
• Automotive Industry: Perfect for lightweight composite drilling in reinforced polymers and aluminium, with quality finishes.
• Industrial Manufacturing: Handles a wide range of composite and hybrid materials with ease, reducing tool changes and downtime.

Materials the GT-15 Drill Reamer Can Handle

The GT-15 Drill Reamer is designed to tackle a variety of composite and hybrid materials:

• Carbon Fibre: Provides quality, precision holes in lightweight, high-strength materials.
• Reinforced Polymers: Cuts through tough polymers without material fraying.
• Glass Fibre: Ensures smooth results in layered or brittle composites.
• Graphite Composites: Handles dense, abrasive materials with ease.
• Carbon and Aluminium Stacks: Excels in hybrid material applications requiring tight tolerances.

4 Flute and 6 Flute Design

The GT-15 Drill Reamer is available in two designs to suit a your needs:

4 Flute Design (2.4mm – 10mm):

Ideal for smaller diameters requiring high-precision drilling.

Optimized for smooth cutting action and reduced material stress.

6 Flute Design (10mm +):

Designed for larger diameters, reducing the need for step drilling.

Optional reduced shank for compatibility with manual and CNC systems.

Why Composite Drilling and Reaming Requires the GT-15 Drill Reamer

Composite materials like carbon fibre and glass fibre are challenging to drill due to their tendency to delaminate or splinter. The GT-15 Drill Reamer solves these issues with its unique cutting geometry, reducing cutting forces at the centre when drilling from solid and minimizing material pushout, then continuing to use multiple cutting edges with negative rake angles in an optional helical or straight flute design depending on application.
