Counterbore is a machining process that is commonly used in the manufacturing industry to create a flat-bottomed hole with a larger diameter at the top. This process involves drilling a pilot hole and then enlarging it with a counterbore tool to create a recessed area for a bolt head or other fastener to sit flush with the surface of the material. Counterboring is often used in applications where a smooth and even surface is required, such as in the aerospace, automotive, and construction industries.
Counterboring is a precise and efficient process that can be performed on a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. It is typically done using a specialized counterbore tool that is designed to create a specific diameter and depth of hole. The tool is inserted into the pilot hole and rotated to enlarge the hole to the desired size and depth. The resulting counterbore provides a secure and stable surface for fasteners to be installed, which helps to prevent damage to the material and ensures a strong and reliable connection.
