Twist Drill — Type N, Ø 6 mm, 135°, TIN-coated, short, HSS-G, DIN 338 (MetavCUT)

The Twist Drill is a short Type N metal drilling bit designed for precise work in hard materials, suited for handheld and machine drilling applications.

• Short design for increased stability
• TiN-coated surface for reduced wear
• 6 mm diameter with 135° tip for hard steels
• Fully ground HSS-G for fast, clean drilling
• Conforms to DIN 338 for short twist drills

Faster machining with less effort

The Twist Drill combines a fully ground HSS-G geometry with a reduced overall length to deliver measurable productivity benefits. The ground flute geometry enables up to 40% faster drilling and requires about 50% less feed force compared with conventional HSS bits, which reduces operator fatigue and cycle times. This design translates directly into more efficient workshop processes and fewer rejects when working with metals.

Longer life through TiN coating and cooling

A TiN-coated surface significantly lowers friction and wear during metal cutting, especially when used with appropriate cooling. This coating extends tool life on alloyed and unalloyed steel, cast iron, copper, bronze and hard plastics, while the 135° tip angle is optimised for harder workpieces such as stainless steel. Reduced friction means cooler operation, fewer tool changes and steadier results across production runs.

Stability and precision for demanding tasks

The short configuration offers a shorter protruding length from the chuck, which increases rigidity and reduces deflection under load. Classified under DIN 338 as a short twist drill with a cylindrical shank, the tool is particularly suited to precise metalworking on both portable Drilling Machines and stationary equipment. The fully ground manufacturing method guarantees sharp cutting edges and high concentricity, delivering clean, accurate holes even at small diameters.

Who benefits from this tool

Workshops and metalworking professionals who prioritise precision and uptime will value the Profi Line by MetavCUT. The drill excels in applications requiring clean holes in tough materials and where tool life and repeatability matter. Its stability and reduced feed requirements make it a reliable choice for both production environments and demanding repair or prototype tasks.
