🔍 Key Concepts

• Properties of soft vs. hard metals when drilling • Why lubrication/cutting fluid is used in machining • Which metals tend to overheat or work-harden if drilled dry

💭 Think About

• Which of these metals is generally softer and easier to machine without generating too much heat? • Which of these metals are known to be very hard or tough, requiring cutting fluid to protect the drill bit? • Think about which metal is commonly used in fittings and simple shop projects where people often drill quickly without special equipment.

✅ Before You Answer

• Eliminate any metal you know is extremely hard or heat‑resistant (those usually need lubrication). • Consider which metal is commonly called free‑machining or easy to drill on small shop tools. • Ask yourself: with a hand drill and no cutting oil, which metal on this list would most likely drill cleanly without burning the bit?
