Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What materials can the Champion CT7 cut through?

The CT7 is engineered to cut through hardened steel, stainless steel, mild steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other ferrous/non-ferrous metals. Its industrial carbide tips maintain edge strength even under extreme stress.

Can I use the CT7 with a handheld drill?

Yes. The Champion CT7 is compatible with handheld power drills and magnetic drill presses. For handheld use, ensure proper clamping and reduced feed pressure for best results.

Does it require cutting fluid or lubricant?

Using a high-quality cutting lubricant is strongly recommended to reduce heat, extend tool life, and improve cutting speed—especially in harder metals.

What’s the difference between CT7 and standard bi-metal hole saws?

CT7 cutters use tungsten carbide teeth that last up to 10x longer, cut faster, and produce cleaner holes. Bi-metal saws dull quickly and are not suited for heavy-duty materials like stainless steel or cast iron.

How long does the Champion CT7 last?

With proper use and lubrication, the CT7 can last through hundreds of cuts, even in steel. Tool life will vary based on material, speed, and drilling technique.

Real-World Results from Professionals

"The CT7 is a game-changer." I’ve drilled over 100 holes in 1/4" steel and it still cuts like new. Zero chatter, clean finishes, no downtime. Worth every penny.

Pro Tips: How to Use the Champion CT7 Like a True Expert

Maximize your drilling efficiency, extend your cutter’s lifespan, and achieve flawless results by following these expert-recommended best practices:

1. Choose the Right Speed (RPM)

Match your drill’s speed to the material. Use lower RPMs for harder metals like stainless steel and moderate speed for mild steel or aluminum. Slower speeds = less heat = longer tool life.

2. Use Cutting Fluid Liberally

Apply a premium metalworking lubricant before and during the cut to prevent overheating, improve chip flow, and preserve the carbide tips.

3. Drill Steadily — Don’t Force It

Let the cutter do the work. Apply steady pressure without forcing the tool, especially when nearing breakthrough. Avoid “pushing” too hard to protect the cutting edges.

4. Secure the Workpiece

Ensure your material is firmly clamped before starting. Unstable surfaces can cause wandering, chatter, or even tool damage.

5. Clear Chips Often

Periodically lift the cutter slightly to allow metal shavings to escape. This reduces friction and ensures cleaner holes.

Cut Through Anything Like a Pro

• Drilling Stainless Steel? Use slow speed, high pressure, and consistent coolant.
• Drilling Overhead or Vertically? Reduce RPMs and use magnetic press or firm bracing.
• Need Deeper Cuts? Pair with Champion extension arbors for extra reach.

Tip: Store your CT7 in a dry, protected case to prevent moisture or surface corrosion. A light coat of oil after use will preserve the cutting edge.

Your Results Depend on Your Technique — And the Champion CT7 is Built to Win
