Rigibore manufactures a wide range of standard products for precision hole boring which can be built into special tools.

The products we make range from manually adjusted tools e.g. cartridges and bush units to tools  that show the adjustment digitally (Smartbore) to a fully-automated closed loop system (ActiveEdge).

Using decades of industry knowledge and experience, Rigibore designs & manufactures special boring tools for individual machining requirements

Smartbore's patented technology electronically measures movement and gives the diameter or radius adjustment reading after confirming the movement.

The future of manufacturing is in automation. Rigibore has an Industry 4.0 ready solution for automatic boring tool adjustment.

Our carbide drill bits are cryogenically treated to change the microstructure and phase constituent, providing you with an extremely hard cutting tool with superior drilling performance. The cryogenic treatment cools the carbide drill bits to extremely low temperatures, typically below -300 degrees Fahrenheit, using nitrogen gas. This process gives the carbide a more uniform and stable microstructure.

All Rigibore adjustable products have been developed to eliminate the need for clamping after adjustment meaning there is no deflection.  NO CLAMPING = NO DEFLECTION.

Use our knowledge base and support centre for technical product information. There are mounting dimensions, CAD file downloads, technical documentation, product catalogues. We have a speeds & feeds calculator and our Boring 101 guide will give you all the information you need to know about boring a hole.

Rigibore high-tech boring tools are the most accurately adjustable tool in the world – capable of an adjustment of one micron on diameter.

Rigibore prides itself in being a world leader in the manufacture of special, multi-feature and combination boring tools.

Rigibore offers a wide and comprehensive range of standard, rotating tool, boring bar, boring units and lay-in cartridges for rough, semi-finish and finish boring operations in both imperial and metric sizes.

As manufacturers of over 10,000 solid carbide cutting tools, we’re confident you’ll love the quality of our bits. If you have inquiries regarding our selection, contact us today.

Our drill bits can make quick work of extremely hard ferrous materials and non-ferrous plastic, brass, iron, aluminum, steel platting, high-density resin, and cast iron, leaving a burr-free finished hole. Our carbide drill bits for hardened steel are made in the USA and come with a solid C-2 grade carbide spade that can cut through hard steel and other high-strength materials.

State-of-the-art carbide drill bits for steel maintain peak performance even when used continuously at high temperatures. Their enhanced toughness reduces the likelihood of chipping or breaking, even under high-stress conditions.

Smartbore’s patented technology electronically measures the movement of the insert slide and gives the diameter adjustment reading after confirming the movement.

When you use our high-quality carbide drill bits, you’ll receive unparalleled performance in high-temperature machining. From drilling out broken bolts and fasteners to cutting through various metals, our sub-micrograin solid carbide drill bits will give you the reliability and power you need.
