How deep can a combined drill and tap thread? It's made for through holes, so the material should be thinner than the drill section in front of the tap. For deep or blind holes, drill first and then use a standard tap.
Do I need cutting oil? Yes. Use cutting fluid on steel and keep the speed low to protect the cutting edges.
