Twist Drill — 10 mm · 135° · Extra Long · HSS‑G · DIN 1869 · Bright Finished · Fully Ground Shank (Drill for Metal) by MetavCUT

The Twist Drill is an extra‑long HSS‑G metal drilling bit designed for deep, precise holes in demanding machining applications with a 10 mm diameter and 135° tip angle.

• Extra‑long design for deep drilling
• 135° tip for hard materials and better centering
• HSS‑G ground geometry for faster drilling
• Fully ground shank for high concentricity
• DIN 1869 compliant for industrial reliability

Engineered for deep, precise metal drilling with confidence

The Twist Drill from MetavCUT offers an extra long overall length of 430 mm with a spiral length of 295 mm, specifically intended for deep hole operations where reach and stability matter. The combination of HSS‑G material and a fully ground shank yields high roundness accuracy and clean hole surfaces, which reduces rework and improves assembly tolerances. Designed for use in a Drilling Machine, this long‑reach bit maintains rigidity despite its length, making it suitable for workshop and production environments that require repeatable, centered holes.

Faster cutting and lower operator effort through ground geometry

Thanks to the CNC ground geometry of the HSS‑G blank, this Twist Drill can achieve up to 40% faster cutting while requiring approximately 50% less thrust compared with conventional rolled HSS drills. The 135° tip angle is optimized for harder materials such as stainless steel and alloyed steels, reducing initial burr formation and shortening pilot times. Grinding the flutes produces very sharp cutting edges and a precise helix, which improves chip evacuation and lowers the risk of chatter when used with appropriate machine settings and coolant.

Best applications, handling tips and material guidance

This extra‑long Twist Drill is primarily intended for Drilling for Metal: alloyed and unalloyed steel, cast iron, sintered materials, and non‑ferrous metals, as well as technical plastics where a robust bit is required. For deep hole work, use steady support and consistent coolant flow to dissipate heat and avoid premature wear or fracturing; ground HSS drills are sharper but can be less ductile than rolled equivalents, so stationary setups and controlled feeds are recommended. The geometry and DIN 1869 specification make the bit particularly effective for through and deep blind holes up to practical limits determined by machine rigidity.

Precision advantages and what makes this drill stand out

MetavCUT’s Standard Line Twist Drill distinguishes itself by pairing bright finished surfaces with a geschliffen / fully ground flute profile, resulting in excellent runout performance and reliable centering, especially in demanding metalworking tasks. The design reduces the tendency for the tip to wander on entry, and when combined with the correct pilot technique and coolant, delivers consistent hole quality that supports downstream processes such as thread tapping and press fits.

Strong recommendation: For demanding deep‑hole metalworking tasks, the MetavCUT Twist Drill (10 mm, extra long, HSS‑G, 135°) is highly recommended — for expert selection, technical advice or to confirm suitability for specific materials and machines, contact METAV Werkzeuge: info@metav-werkzeuge.com · +49 2822 7131930 · WhatsApp +49 170 2837271

FAQ

What is the MetavCUT Twist Drill best used for?
The MetavCUT Twist Drill (Drill for Metal) is mainly used for machining high‑strength materials and larger diameters where deep holes are required; its extra‑long design and HSS‑G construction make it suitable for alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast irons and hard plastics under machine and coolant support.

Can the MetavCUT Twist Drill be used in a handheld drill?
While the Twist Drill is designed for use in a Drilling Machine for optimal stability, it can be used in powerful handheld machines for certain tasks; however, for safety and the best results with an extra‑long HSS‑G bit, a stationary machine and coolant are recommended.

For what is a Twist Drill used?
A Twist Drill is primarily applied when working on high‑strength materials and larger drill diameters. Its shape allows easy resharpening and it withstands higher loads; this makes the bit suitable for deep holes and demanding metalworking tasks.

Which three drill types exist?
Typical categories are metal drills, wood drills and stone/concrete drills.

Why are Twist Drills resharpened at the tip?
Resharpening reduces the cross‑edge at the drill tip, lowering friction so smaller feed forces are needed; this improves centering and reduces required thrust for the Twist Drill.

Can a Twist Drill be used for wood?
A metal Twist Drill can be used in wood but will usually offer poorer guidance and a rougher finish; it is easier to resharpen and shows less self‑feed than dedicated wood drills.

For which drilling depths is the Twist Drill most used?
A solid hole is commonly made with a Twist Drill. For diameters up to 20 mm and drill depths up to about 100 mm, the Twist Drill is the most frequently used tool.

What is better, HSS or HSSE?
The general belief that HSSE steels are always superior to HSS is not universally correct; consider the working conditions carefully to determine whether the higher cost of HSSE is justified.
