Twist Drill (Type N) short · 4 mm · 135° Tip · HSS‑G · Bright Finished · DIN 338 · Fully Ground Shank · MetavCUT

The Twist Drill Type N short is a precision metal‑drilling bit for Drilling Machines, designed for stable, high‑performance holes in alloyed and unalloyed steels.

• Short design for high stability
• 4 mm Diameter for precise holes
• 135° Tip for hard materials like stainless steel
• Fully ground shank for accurate clamping
• Complies with DIN 338 for metalworking

Faster, more efficient drilling in hard materials

Deriving its cutting performance from HSS‑G Metallurgy, this Twist Drill combines high wear resistance with reliable edge retention. The 135° Tip reduces chipping when penetrating hardened surfaces and shortens lead time on initial contact, so each hole is drilled with less wandering. As a result, workshops benefit from improved cycle times and consistent hole quality.

Short design increases rigidity and accuracy

A short overall length and a fully ground shank minimise deflection and vibration during machining. According to DIN 338 classifications for short Twist Drills, the reduced overhang delivers higher stability on both stationary and handheld Drilling Machines. This construction is particularly advantageous when precision, roundness and repeatability are priorities.

Lower feed forces and broader material range

Thanks to the optimized geometry of the HSS‑G flute and the Type N Normal Spiral, this Twist Drill enables up to 40% faster drilling and requires up to 50% less feed force compared with conventional HSS bits. The design makes it well suited for alloyed and unalloyed Steel, Cast Iron, Sintered Iron, Non‑Ferrous Metals and hard Plastics, while still offering straightforward resharpening when required.

Ideal users and workshop applications

Manufactured for professionals in metalworking, maintenance and precision engineering, the MetavCUT Twist Drill supports demanding shop environments where consistent hole quality matters. Its bright finished surface and short flute length offer easy chip evacuation for drilling depths up to its overall length, while the compact format makes it suitable for confined setups and multi‑tool fixtures.

FAQ

What are Twist Drills used for and which materials suit the MetavCUT Twist Drill Type N short?
The MetavCUT Twist Drill Type N short is primarily used for drilling metal; its HSS‑G composition and 135° Tip make it suitable for alloyed and unalloyed Steel, Cast Iron, Sintered Iron, Non‑Ferrous Metals and Hard Plastics, offering reliable hole quality in demanding applications.

Which three drill types exist and where does the MetavCUT Twist Drill fit?
Three common drill categories are Metal Drills, Wood Drills and Masonry/Concrete Drills. The MetavCUT Twist Drill Type N short is a Metal Drill (Type N Normal Spiral) optimised for metalworking tasks.

For what is a Twist Drill generally used?
A Twist Drill is chiefly applied to the machining of high‑strength materials and larger diameters; it is easy to resharpen and withstands substantial loads, which is why the MetavCUT Twist Drill is recommended for robust metalworking duties.
