Twist Drill (Short) – 9.5 mm, 118° tip, TIN-coated, HSS-G, DIN 338

A Twist Drill in short execution for precise metalworking on drilling machines, designed to combine stability and long tool life.

• Short HSS-G Twist Drill for higher stability
• TIN-coated for extended tool life
• Fully ground shank for accurate centring
• DIN 338 classification for metal machining
• 118° tip angle for reliable entry

Greater Precision through Reduced Overhang and Higher Rigidity

The short execution of this Twist Drill provides a significantly reduced overhang, which directly increases Stability and reduces the risk of bending under load. Shorter protrusion from the chuck leads to consistently better roundness and hole accuracy when machining Metal, making the tool particularly suitable for demanding workshop and industrial tasks. This shorter geometry supports precise alignment on rotating and stationary drilling machines without compromising hole quality or surface finish.

Longer Service Life and Lower Wear with TIN Coating

A TIN-coated surface extends tool life by reducing friction and improving heat resistance during high-speed metal drilling. The HSS-G base material paired with the Titanium Nitride layer ensures that cutting edges remain sharper for longer, especially when combined with an appropriate cooling system. This combination reduces abrasive wear and helps maintain dimensional accuracy in legged and unalloyed steel, cast materials, copper, bronze and hard plastics, resulting in fewer tool changes and more consistent production runs.

Faster Cutting and Lower Feed Force for Efficient Production

Thanks to the fully ground HSS geometry, this short Twist Drill permits up to 40% faster drilling while requiring approximately 50% less axial feed force compared with conventional HSS drills. The CNC grinding process produces very sharp cutting lips and excellent runout characteristics, which improve chip evacuation and hole quality. For demanding metalworking operations, these characteristics reduce machining time and operator effort while increasing throughput on production lines.

Norm Compliance and Recommended Working Conditions

Manufactured according to DIN 338 for short spiral drills with cylindrical shanks, this tool meets industry standards for dimensions and tolerances, ensuring compatibility with common chucks and fixtures. The 118° tip angle provides reliable entry and is well suited for a range of metals and general-purpose machining; cooling is recommended to exploit the TIN coating and HSS-G material fully. For best results, use in stationary or well-supported drilling setups and consider coolant when machining tougher alloys to maintain tool life and hole quality.
