MetavCUT Profi Line Twist Drill (Type N) – 11 mm, Short, HSS-G, DIN 338, Bright Finish, Fully Ground Shank, 135° Point Angle

A MetavCUT Profi Line Twist Drill (Type N) designed as a short HSS-G metal drill for use in Drilling Machines, offering improved stability and fast machining for hardened materials.

• MetavCUT Profi Line Twist Drill Type N, 11 mm diameter
• Short design for increased Stability and Precision
• Fully ground shank for excellent Runout accuracy
• 135° Point Angle optimised for hard metals
• Conforms to DIN 338 for short HSS drills

Outstanding stability for precise metalworking

A short Twist Drill from the Profi Line reduces the exposed length and therefore increases Stability during machining. This shorter design lowers the tendency to deflect and enables cleaner, more accurate holes when working with tough materials. The combination of HSS-G material and a fully ground geometry delivers higher edge sharpness and improved concentricity, making it suitable for demanding tasks on stationary or portable Drilling Machines.

Faster drilling with lower feed force

Thanks to the HSS-G construction and optimized geometry, the short variant of this Twist Drill requires significantly less Anpresskraft while drilling; tests and manufacturer data indicate up to 40% quicker drilling compared with conventional HSS types and substantially reduced feed effort. This performance gain translates into measurable time savings and less operator strain when producing holes in alloyed and unalloyed steels.

Specifically engineered for hard and alloyed metals

The 135° Point Angle on this Type N drill is tailored for harder materials such as Stainless Steel and tempered alloys; a larger point angle shortens the initial engagement and reduces wandering on the surface. As a Type N (normal spiral) tool, it is optimised for metal applications and delivers reliable chip evacuation and consistent hole quality in Gusseisen, Gussstahl and non-ferrous metals.

Clear standards and manufacturing quality

Manufactured in accordance with DIN 338, this short Twist Drill meets defined tolerances and dimensional requirements for short cylinder-shank HSS drills. The designation “G” for HSS-G denotes a ground flute geometry produced by CNC grinding, which yields sharper cutting edges and superior roundness compared with roll-formed alternatives. For best results, use with appropriate cooling and avoid excessive lateral loads to reduce the risk of breakage.

Simple selection and practical use

This short Twist Drill is intended for use in Drilling Machines and offers a balance between rigidity and cutting performance. The bright finish and the fully ground shank facilitate easy clamping and inspection. For manual work in lighter materials, a dedicated wood or masonry drill would be preferable, but for metalworking tasks requiring precision and repeatability, this drill is a suitable choice.

FAQ

What materials is the MetavCUT Profi Line Twist Drill Type N suitable for?
The MetavCUT Profi Line Twist Drill Type N is primarily designed for metalworking; the HSS-G construction and 135° Point Angle make this drill especially suited to alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast iron and non-ferrous metals, providing clean holes and reliable performance in harder materials.

How does the short design of the MetavCUT Twist Drill affect drilling performance?
A short Twist Drill from MetavCUT reduces the protruding length from the chuck, increasing stability and lowering the risk of deflection. This leads to more precise hole positioning and allows higher feed rates in many metalworking applications when combined with proper coolant and clamping.

For what is a Twist Drill mainly used?
A Twist Drill is chiefly applied in the machining of high-strength materials and larger drill diameters. The form is easy to sharpen and withstands higher loads, which makes it ideal for demanding metal drilling operations.

Which three drill types exist?
The three main drill types are metal drills, wood drills and masonry/concrete drills.
