TECWERK double-ended sheet metal drill D 4.2 mm HSS — short spiral, cross-ground

TECWERK double-ended sheet metal drill D 4.2 mm HSS designed for handheld drilling and bodywork applications, offering clean entry and dependable performance in thin materials

• HSS solid construction
• Cross-ground tip for reliable centring
• Short spiral ideal for thin sheet metal

Faster, cleaner holes for thin-sheet applications

The Double-ended sheet metal drill D 4.2 mm HSS TECWERK is built to produce consistently accurate holes in thin materials. The cross-ground point reduces walking at drill start, which means fewer pilot marks and less surface damage; this results in a cleaner hole and less post-processing. Made from HSS, the tool keeps edge geometry under the thermal and mechanical stress typical of handheld drilling, translating into reliable hole quality across multiple uses.

Practical design for workshop efficiency and uptime

A double-ended configuration halves tool changes on the bench: when one end fatigues, the bit is simply reversed to continue work. The cylinder shank fits standard chucks and quick-change holders, enabling rapid replacement and minimal downtime. The short spiral geometry aids chip control in thin sheet work, reducing clogging during manual operations with handheld drills and preserving the surface around the bore.

Geometry and finish that protect the workpiece

The profile-ground flute and cross-ground point are matched to thin-sheet cutting: the point centres quickly and the flute geometry promotes controlled chip evacuation, which helps to deliver reduced burr and a neater edge. The bright (uncoated) finish is suitable where secondary coatings or weld preparations follow drilling, avoiding contamination from coating flaking and ensuring predictable fit for fasteners.

Suited to bodywork, repair and general sheet-metal tasks

Engineered for bodywork and general sheet-metal repairs, this drill is optimised for thin metals and routine workshop tasks where handheld tools are preferred over stationary machines. The right-hand cutting direction and compact dimensions support controlled penetration and reduced deformation of thin panels. For workshops seeking straightforward, low-complexity tooling that delivers repeatable results, this bit offers a practical balance of precision and economy, supported by Metav’s supply reliability.

FAQ

Is this drill suitable for vehicle body panels and thin aluminium?
Yes. The TECWERK double-ended sheet metal drill D 4.2 mm HSS is designed for thin materials and is suitable for common bodywork panels and thin aluminium sheets when used with appropriate feed and support.

Can the drill be used in a cordless handheld drill?
Yes. The cylinder shank and compact overall length make the drill compatible with standard chucks of cordless handheld drills; ensure correct clamping and steady support for best results.

What advantage does the cross-ground point provide?
The cross-ground geometry reduces drill walking and improves initial centring, which produces cleaner holes and minimises surface damage on thin sheets.

How does the short spiral affect chip evacuation?
A short spiral is beneficial for thin-material work because it promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation without over-penetration, reducing clogging and improving surface finish.

Is the drill supplied in multi-packs?
