Custom flat-bottom coolant-thru carbide drill from China manufacturer

A practical RFQ guide for buyers sourcing custom carbide drills from China, including drawings, tolerances, coolant holes, coatings, MOQ and lead-time questions.

Custom carbide drills are not just non-standard diameters. Buyers often need a step drill, flat-bottom drill, coolant-through drill, micro drill, long drill, special point angle, private-label marking or coating chosen for a specific work material. A good RFQ makes the difference between a fast quote and several days of clarification.

Custom carbide drill types buyers request

Custom drill typeTypical reasonCritical RFQ detail
Step carbide drillMultiple diameters in one tool and fewer tool changesStep diameters, step length, chamfer/radius and coaxiality requirement
Flat-bottom carbide drillBlind holes, counterbores and flat-bottom featuresPoint geometry, bottom finish and whether coolant holes are needed
Coolant-thru carbide drillDeep holes, chip evacuation and heat controlDepth ratio, coolant pressure, flute length and work material
Micro carbide drillSmall holes in precision partsRunout, holder type, coating and minimum order quantity
Private-label drillDistributor or OEM brand supplyLaser marking, packaging, batch traceability and repeat-order rules

RFQ checklist for faster quotes

  • 2D drawing or 3D model, plus any reference tool currently used.
  • Workpiece material, hardness, machine type and coolant condition.
  • Diameter tolerance, hole depth, surface finish and runout requirement.
  • Coating preference or cutting problem to solve: wear, chipping, built-up edge or chip clogging.
  • Trial quantity, target price range, annual usage and packaging/marking requirements.

How to avoid bad custom drill samples

  • Do not quote only from a photo when the tool has steps, coolant holes or tight tolerance.
  • Confirm whether the supplier controls grinding, inspection and coating or outsources key steps.
  • Ask for first-article inspection details before repeating an annual order.
  • Keep sample feedback specific: hole size, burr, chip shape, wear pattern, noise and tool life.
