Usage
Designed for precise drilling in metal, the HSS Ø9mm drill bit is ideal for creating clean holes in steel, cast iron, alloyed and non-alloyed metals, as well as certain plastics. Suitable for use with handheld or stationary drills.
Advantages
- Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) for enhanced resistance to heat and wear
- 118° point angle ensures efficient material penetration and reduces walking on metal surfaces
- Conforms to DIN 338 standard for dimensional accuracy and reliability
- N-type flute optimizes chip evacuation during drilling operations
- Flexible yet robust construction minimizes risk of breakage under typical workshop conditions
Specifications
- Material: High-speed steel (HSS), alloyed with tungsten and molybdenum for increased durability and thermal resistance[1][8]
- Standard: Manufactured according to DIN 338[N type] specifications[5][6]
- Point angle: 118°, suitable for unalloyed/alloyed steels up to approximately ~900 N/mm² tensile strength[3][5]
- Total length: Approximately standard jobber length proportional to diameter; cylindrical shank fits most drill chucks[3][6]
How it works
The HSS Ø9mm drill bit operates by cutting into metal using its sharpened tip while spiral flutes remove chips from the hole. For optimal results, mount the bit securely in a drill, apply steady pressure at moderate speeds, and use appropriate cooling when working with harder metals.
