Metalworking requires precision and efficiency, and that's where cutting fluid and core drills come in. These two elements are essential to achieving high-quality results. By ensuring smooth cuts and reducing friction, cutting fluid helps extend the lifespan of your tools and equipment. Meanwhile, core drills allow you to make clean, accurate holes in your metalwork. 

• Lubrication: Cutting fluid acts as a lubricant, reducing the friction between the core drill and the metal being drilled. This helps minimise the wear and tear on the drill bit, thus extending its lifespan.
  
• Cooling: Core drilling generates a significant amount of heat due to intense friction. Cutting fluid helps dissipate this heat, keeping both the drill bit and the workpiece at a manageable temperature. This cooling effect prevents overheating, which can damage the drill bit and alter the properties of the metal being worked on.
  
• Improved Cutting Efficiency: The lubricating and cooling properties of cutting fluid enable the core drill to cut more efficiently. This results in smoother, cleaner holes and faster drilling times. The fluid helps maintain the sharpness of the drill bit, ensuring consistent performance.
  
• Chip Removal: During drilling, metal chips are produced. Cutting fluid helps flush these chips away from the cutting area. This removal is important for maintaining a clear drilling path, preventing the chips from clogging the drill bit, and reducing the risk of damage to both the drill bit and the workpiece.
  
• Corrosion Prevention: Many cutting fluids contain additives that help protect the drill bit and the workpiece from corrosion. This is particularly important in environments where the metal might be prone to rust or other forms of corrosion. Without cutting fluid, core drills would suffer from increased wear, potential overheating, and reduced efficiency in the drilling process.
