Twist Drill — Extra Long HSS‑G Drill (Ø 4.2 mm, 135°)

The Twist Drill is an extra long HSS‑G drill designed for deep metal drilling, offering a 135° point angle and a fully ground shank for precise work with drilling machines.

• Extra long geometry for deep, hard-to-reach holes
• 4.2 mm diameter for precise hole placement
• 135° point angle for stainless and hard steels
• HSS-G material, CNC-ground for precise holes
• Fully ground shank for excellent runout accuracy

Faster deep drilling with less feed force

Thanks to its extra long geometry and HSS‑G composition, this drill is optimised for deep holes in demanding materials. The ground spiral profile and DIN 1869 specification make it particularly suitable for alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast iron and non‑ferrous metals. The manufacturing method produces a bit that can drill up to 40 % faster and requires around 50 % less feed force compared with conventional HSS drills, which reduces operator fatigue and machine load and shortens cycle times.

Precise holes and clean edges for reduced rework

The CNC grinding process of the flutes yields very sharp cutting edges and high radial accuracy, so the tool produces precision bores with minimal burr and superior surface quality. Such precision lowers the need for secondary finishing and reduces scrap rates. Be aware that ground HSS bits can be less ductile than rolled types, so optimal results are obtained with appropriate speeds, steady clamping and cooling in more stationary or semi‑stationary setups.

Built for workshop and industrial demands

Engineered for use in a Drilling Machine, this extra long bit supports applications where standard lengths fall short, for example deep‑bore assemblies or hard‑to‑reach mounting positions. The 135° tip ensures efficient entry into harder materials, shortening punch‑through times and improving centring. For machinists and maintenance teams tackling thick workpieces, this design translates into fewer tool changes and more predictable cycle times.

Practical handling, maintenance and cost advantages

A fully ground shank contributes to low runout and stable clamping in chucks, while the bright finish aids visual inspection and corrosion resistance. The HSS‑G material can be resharpened, extending service life and making the tool economical for regular workshop use. Regular use of coolant and correct cutting parameters will maximise lifetime and maintain hole quality, offering a balance of durability and regrindability for professional applications.
