Double‑ended drill bit 3.1 mm HSS bodywork drill TECWERK — short‑helix, cylinder shank, profile‑ground

Double‑ended drill bit 3.1 mm HSS bodywork drill TECWERK is a purpose‑built tool for efficient drilling in thin materials, especially sheet metal, using hand‑held drills or small bench machines

• HSS profile‑ground for precise edges
• Short helix suited to thin materials
• Double‑ended for extended tool life
• Cylinder shank for standard chucks

Clean, reliable holes in thin sheet materials

The HSS construction and profile‑ground geometry provide a reliable cutting edge that reduces burr formation when working with thin metals. With a 3.1 mm cutting diameter and a short helix, the bit controls chip evacuation and prevents the material from snagging, which is particularly important for bodywork and panel applications. The cross point ensures rapid centring without pilot drilling, delivering repeatable, clean results while maintaining drilling speed and reducing rework.

Built for longer uptime and straightforward handling

The double‑ended layout effectively doubles usable life per tool, allowing a quick flip to a fresh cutting end when wear occurs, which minimises changeover time on the shop floor. The cylinder shank fits standard chucks on hand drills and compact drill presses, enabling fast tool changes and steady running. As the bit is right‑hand cutting and short‑spiral, it is optimised for manual drilling in thin sheets where control and process reliability are priorities.

Compatibility and application scope explained

This bodywork drill is specifically designed for drilling thin materials and is primarily suited to sheet metal work with hand‑held drilling equipment. The geometry and material selection make it effective for fast, controlled penetration without excessive burr. For users less familiar with technical terms: short helix refers to a reduced spiral length that improves stability in thin parts, while profile‑ground indicates a machined cutting profile for consistent edge geometry and improved life.

Confidence through quality and practical support

Sourcing from established supply channels ensures consistent quality control and traceability. Metav combines a broad product range with a local quality filter in Emmerich, supporting workshops and industry with reliable delivery and technical transparency. The product’s plain finish and straightforward design emphasise practical performance and easy disposal at end of life, while the robust HSS material offers wear resistance under typical sheet‑metal drilling conditions.

FAQ

What materials is this drill suitable for?
The TECWERK double‑ended bodywork drill is designed primarily for thin sheet metal applications; its short helix and HSS construction support controlled drilling in such materials.

Can the bit be used in a drill press or only hand drills?
The cylinder shank and robust HSS design allow use in both hand‑held drills and small bench or press machines provided the chuck accepts the shank size.

How does the double‑ended design affect maintenance?
A double‑ended configuration doubles the available cutting life per tool: when one end wears, the bit can be reversed to use the second end, reducing downtime for replacements.
