Twist Drill — MetavCUT Extra Long HSS-G Twist Drill (Ø 10 mm, 135° tip, Bright Finished, Fully Ground, DIN 1869)

The Twist Drill from MetavCUT is an extra-long HSS-G drill designed for deep, precise metal drilling in hand and machine applications.

• Extra-long design for deep-hole drilling
• 10 mm diameter for accurate hole sizing
• 135° tip for hard material entry
• Fully Ground shank for high concentricity
• HSS-G material according to DIN 1869 for tough jobs

Robust HSS-G construction for faster, cleaner drilling

Deriving from a High-Speed Steel (HSS-G) production process, this extra-long twist drill offers notably improved cutting behaviour. Tests and manufacturer data indicate up to 40% faster drilling and about 50% less thrust compared with conventional HSS bits, which reduces operator fatigue and tool wear. The HSS-G material provides sharp cutting edges and consistent performance when used with appropriate speeds and cooling, making the bit especially suited to alloyed and unalloyed steels.

Extra reach and deep-hole capability for difficult tasks

With a Spiral Length of 235 mm and a Total Length of 340 mm, the extra-long geometry enables drilling where standard lengths cannot reach. The DIN 1869 specification denotes a deep-hole spiral, meaning the flute geometry is optimised to evacuate chips during extended cuts and to maintain stability in deeper bores. This design is particularly beneficial when access is limited or when long, straight holes are required without abandoning concentricity.

Precise tip geometry and shank finish for demanding materials

A 135° tip angle is chosen to reduce walking and to facilitate entry into harder materials such as stainless steel; the blunter tip shortens breakthrough time on tough alloys. The fully ground shank and flute geometry (CNC grinding rather than rolled formation) ensure exceptional roundness and hole quality. Users should note that ground HSS bits can be more brittle than rolled equivalents; therefore, stationary drilling with coolant and moderate cutting speeds is recommended for best results.

Targeted applications and operator guidance

This MetavCUT twist drill is developed for professional use on metal, including cast iron, sintered iron, tempered castings, non-ferrous metals and hard plastics. The bit is compatible with hand drills and drilling machines, but optimal performance is achieved on stable setups with appropriate clamping and cooling. For cleaner holes and longer tool life, use steady feed, appropriate cutting fluid and moderate RPMs tailored to the workpiece material.

FAQ

What is a Twist Drill used for and which materials suit it best?
The MetavCUT Twist Drill is primarily used for metalworking; it is applied especially when machining alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast iron and non-ferrous metals. The extra-long HSS-G design permits deeper holes and improved chip evacuation, making the bit well suited to professional deep-hole drilling tasks.

Which three drill types are commonly distinguished?
Three common drill categories are metal drills, wood drills and stone/concrete drills. The MetavCUT Twist Drill belongs to the metal drill category and is optimised for metal applications, while wood drills and stone/concrete drills use different geometries and materials for their respective substrates.
