I just ordered $38 dollars worth of parts for my D9-40C  and I got some BLMA grab irons. What drill bit do I need to drill out the holes for the grab irons? -Grayson |

#80 will do the trick. You can use a #79 also. The hole will be a tad bigger though. Have fun!

I think those are what we used to call torch tip cleaning bits.

Still use the tip cleaners today that I bought 15 yrs ago try a welding supply they come with mabye 7 tips, screw off top. Pick your bit insert in the other end tighten and your ready.
