Abstract:
A safety drilling tool having a tapered drill bit that drills through materials, such as metal, without producing any torque or heat is provided. The safety drilling tool may provide safety for the operator of the tool while drilling or cutting into electrical/electronic enclosures, such as switchgear. The bit may include a smooth graduated cam on the cutting portion eliminate the usage of steps as is the conventional practice in the art. The drill bits may be different sizes to reduce the bulkiness for sake of convenience. The bits may have a one or more internal helical flutes for pushing the debris through the hole being drilled. The hole saw portion of the bit draws the material into the center of the bit until the initial hole is made allowing the debris from the tapered bit to flow through hole being drilled.
