Drill bit question
Drill bit question
(OP)
Just a simple question:
Whats the best drill bit for drilling 6061 T6 aluminum with the highest accuracy? (what kind, tip, etc)
I've designed a tooling fixture to do some operations in-house to save money and by having an accurate bit, will also save steps. Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks.

This will be done on a mill, through a drill bushing, clamped down in a fixture, through .25" 6061 T6 Alum material, with a .375" drill +/- .001 at worst, manually added oil.
