Twist Drill — Type N short HSS, Ø 9.1 mm, 118° Point Angle, Black, DIN 338

The Twist Drill Type N short HSS is a compact metalworking drill bit designed for precise drilling in steel and other metals with handheld or drilling machines.

• Short HSS Twist Drill for precise metal drilling
• Designed to DIN 338 for short cylindrical shanks
• 118° point angle for reliable centring and reduced walking
• Stable short length: 125 mm overall for less deflection
• Suitable for handheld drilling machines and workshop use

Greater Stability and Precision for Metalworking

Thanks to its short design and conformance to DIN 338, this Twist Drill offers increased rigidity and reduced tendency to bend compared with longer drills. The shorter protruding length gives better control and enables more accurate hole positioning in metal components. As a result, less rework is needed and tool life is supported by reduced lateral stress.

Material Performance and When to Use It

Made from HSS (High Speed Steel), the bit is optimised for standard metalworking tasks: it suits alloyed and unalloyed steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals and many plastics. The 118° point angle makes the tip easier to centre on curved surfaces and softer materials while still delivering clean penetration into metal. For tougher materials, harder geometries may be chosen, but for many workshop and maintenance jobs this Type N bit is an efficient, reliable choice.

Compatibility with Tools and Practical Tips

With an overall length of 125 mm and a spiral length of 81 mm, the short execution reduces vibration during use and is particularly suitable for handheld drilling machines as well as bench drills. For best results, select appropriate spindle speed and steady feed; the roll-formed HSS construction helps reduce breakage risk on diameters below 6 mm and offers good re-sharpenability when needed.

Practical Advantage and Quality Assurance

This Type N short Twist Drill from MetavCUT focuses on stability and wide-ranging usability in metalworking. The black finish and standard cylindrical shank are compatible with common chucks, and the adherence to DIN 338 ensures consistent manufacturing tolerance. Whether for repair, workshop production or maintenance, the bit offers a balance of stability and versatility.
