A few months back, I was trying to drill a hole in one of my aluminum doors, but I wasn't able to because my drill bit kept breaking. I called my uncle and asked him how to drill a hole in Aluminum. He told me that I needed a cobalt steel drill bit to complete the process. 

How to Drill a Straight Hole in Aluminum?

To drill a hole in aluminum, my uncle told me to follow the below steps. 

  • He told me to mark the spot properly and wear safety gear such as glasses and gloves before starting the drilling process. 

  • Then, my uncle told me to attach the drill bit to the drill motor and then place it over the mark. 

  • Now, he suggested me to apply a bit of pressure on the motor of the drill and then drill. 

  • Then I was asked to stop drilling especially when I feel that the drill was done. 

  • After that, he told me to slide out the drill bit and clean all the residue that was present inside. 

He also told me that generally drilled holes are 2-inch long. So, when it comes to how to drill a 2 inch hole in aluminum, I can add a stopper on the drill 2 inches from the tip. 

And that’s what my uncle told me about how to drill a hole in aluminum. I hope this helps.
