Twist Drill — MetavCUT Basic Line, 9 mm, 135° Tip, HSS‑G (Short, Bright Finished, DIN 338)

The Twist Drill is a short HSS‑G metalworking drill designed for Drilling Machines and handheld use, offering high feed efficiency and stable performance in demanding steel applications.

• Short design for stable, precise drilling
• 9 mm diameter for common metalworking tasks
• 135° tip for improved centring in hard materials
• Fully ground shank for accurate seating in chucks
• Conforms to DIN 338 for short twist drills

Faster penetration and reduced feed effort for hard metals

The HSS‑G composition delivers a clear advantage: up to 40% faster drilling and roughly 50% less thrust compared with conventional HSS bits. For users working with alloyed and unalloyed Steel, Cast Steel, Gusseisen and hard plastics, this means fewer tool changes and smoother cycles. The 135° tip angle reduces the tendency to wander on tough surfaces and shortens dwell during initial engagement. This results in more efficient machining and less operator fatigue.

Short geometry for superior stability and hole quality

A short overall length and a spiral length of 81 mm minimise overhang and vibration, producing more consistent hole geometry under moderate cutting conditions. The fully ground shank ensures solid clamping in chucks and better concentricity, improving finish and reducing runout. Because the flute length and geometry follow DIN 338, workshop operators benefit from predictable behaviour when switching between comparable short twist drills.

Built for metalworking workshops and maintenance tasks

This Type N twist drill is the classic choice for metal applications and is optimised for Drilling Machines as well as robust handheld units. Its bright finished surface eases chip evacuation in many metals while remaining straightforward to resharpen when needed. For maintenance engineers, toolroom technicians and small fabrication shops, the combination of 9 mm diameter and short design strikes a balance between versatility and rigidity.

Industry standard compliance delivers reproducible results

Manufactured to DIN 338 specifications within the MetavCUT Basic Line, this twist drill follows proven dimensional and performance criteria for short cylinder‑shank bits. The Type N normal spiral provides a versatile chip geometry for a wide range of metallic materials. If uncertainty remains about the correct geometry or material choice for a specific application, the short tip geometry and HSS‑G grade allow straightforward regrinding while maintaining performance.

FAQ

What materials is the MetavCUT Twist Drill suitable for?
The MetavCUT Twist Drill (Type N, HSS‑G) is primarily intended for metalworking; it performs well in alloyed and unalloyed Steel, Cast Steel, Gusseisen and certain hard plastics, offering reliable penetration and chip formation for these materials.

How does the short design of the MetavCUT Twist Drill benefit workshop use?
A short Twist Drill from MetavCUT reduces overhang and vibration, improving hole accuracy and concentricity; the compact geometry is especially helpful for precise operations and when working with harder materials where deflection must be minimised.

For what is a Twist Drill used?
A Twist Drill is mainly employed for machining high‑strength materials and larger drill diameters; this form is easy to resharpen and endures higher loads.

Which three drill types exist?
The main categories are Metal Drills, Wood Drills and Stone/Concrete Drills.

Why are Twist Drills sharpened at the tip?
Tip sharpening reduces the cross‑cut at the drill tip, lowering friction and thus reducing required feed force while improving centring in the workpiece.

Can a Twist Drill be used to drill wood?
A Metal Drill can be used in wood, but guidance and finish are inferior compared with dedicated wood drills. Metal drills are easier to resharpen and show less self‑feeding tendency.

For which drilling depths is the Twist Drill most commonly used?
Twist Drills are the standard choice for through‑hole drilling. For diameters up to 20 mm and depths up to 100 mm they are the most frequently used tool.

Is HSS better than HSSE?
The common belief that HSSE is always superior to HSS is incorrect; selection should consider the specific working conditions and whether the extra cost of HSSE is justified.
