Why choose it

The 8% cobalt content provides superior hardness and heat resistance, allowing the bit to maintain cutting performance at high temperatures. The split point design ensures accurate starting without walking, reducing the need for center punching. Ground from solid, this drill bit offers consistent geometry and long tool life.

Ideal use cases

• Drilling stainless steel and acid-resistant steel components in machine shops
• Creating precise holes in high-alloy steel workpieces
• Working with cast iron and bronze in maintenance and repair
• Drilling hard plastics where a clean, accurate hole is required

Good to know

This drill bit conforms to DIN 338, the standard for short series twist drills with cylindrical shanks. Its bright finish is uncoated, which is suitable for general-purpose drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The h8 tolerance ensures a consistent diameter for reliable hole sizing.
