The Twist Drill Type N short HSS is a precision metalworking drill with a 6.2 mm diameter, a 118° tip angle and a compact design for stable, accurate holes in metal.

• Short HSS design for improved stability
• DIN 338 compliant short twist drill
• 6.2 mm diameter for precise metal holes
• 118° tip for controlled entry
• Suitable for drilling machines and hand drills

Stable drilling for accurate metal holes

The short HSS construction reduces overhang and vibration, delivering higher stability and more precise results when machining metal. Because the flute length is reduced, the tool resists bending and provides consistent concentricity in through-holes. This results in cleaner bores and less rework when working on components that demand tight tolerances.

Material and geometry explained for reliable results

Made from High Speed Steel (HSS), the drill combines toughness with wear resistance ideal for common metalworking tasks. The 118° tip angle eases centring on curved or softer surfaces and lowers the initial cutting forces; this geometry is particularly effective for general metal grades and reduces the chance of walking at the start of the hole. Short drills per DIN 338 are optimised for rigid setups and stationary or portable drilling machines.

Where this drill excels and who benefits

Designed primarily as a Drills for Metal tool, the Type N short configuration suits workshops, toolrooms and maintenance pros seeking repeatable performance in steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals and plastics. The compact format is beneficial for confined setups or when using hand-held drilling devices, delivering greater control and faster, more reliable hole-making for production and repair tasks.
