Consumable Tools

What Are Consumable Tools & How Are They Different from Regular Tools?
Consumable tools include items such as adhesive tapes, countersinks and polishing discs. These differ from “standard” tools such as power drills or hand saws that are designed to be reused long-term.

How Do I Select the Right Drill Bit or Saw Blade?
Match the tool to both the material (wood, metal, glass, etc.) and the equipment you’ll be using. For instance, a wood-specific saw blade will have a different tooth design than a metal-cutting blade. Always double-check the recommended RPM and size compatibility before making a purchase.

What Is the Typical Lifespan of Consumable Tools?
It varies based on the frequency of use, material hardness and proper usage techniques. Factors such as cutting speed, lubrication and correct application can extend a consumable tool’s lifespan.

How Can I Make My Consumable Tools Last Longer?
Proper usage, maintenance, and storage are key to maintaining your consumable tools. In order to make your tools last longer, ensure that you:

• • Use the correct feed rate and speed settings.
  • Avoid forcing the tool through the material.
  • Keep bits and blades clean of debris and rust.
  • Store them in a dry environment to prevent corrosion.

What Safety Precautions Should I Take While Using Consumable Tools?

• • Wear protective gear: safety goggles, gloves, and appropriate footwear.
  • Check the condition of the tool before each use (e.g., no chips in blades, no cracks in discs).
  • Operate within the recommended speed (RPM) range.
  • Always disconnect power when changing consumable attachments.

Can I Sharpen or Refurbish Consumable Tools Like Blades and Bits?
Some products, such as higher-quality drill bits and saw blades, can be sharpened multiple times before they’re no longer usable. However, this typically requires professional sharpening services to ensure the correct angles and tooth patterns are maintained.
