Twist Drill — long HSS‑G Twist Drill (Ø 11.5 mm, 135° tip, Bright Finished, Fully Ground, DIN 340)

The Twist Drill long HSS‑G for Drilling Machine applications is a DIN 340 long‑run bit designed for deep holes and demanding metalworking tasks.

• Long HSS‑G design for deep holes
• 11.5 mm Diameter for larger bore tasks
• 135° Tip Angle suited for hard metals
• Fully ground shank for precise runout
• Bright finished surface for improved corrosion resistance

Outstanding metalworking performance for deep and hard drilling

The Twist Drill in the Standard Line is engineered to drill reliably into high‑strength and abrasive metals. Its HSS‑G Material and 135° Tip Angle reduce cutting forces and improve centring when working with alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast irons and sintered metals. This combination delivers a clear advantage when a clean entry and controlled chip formation are required for deeper bores, allowing more consistent results on demanding components.

Precision runout and efficient cutting with ground geometry

Thanks to the Fully Ground flute geometry and CNC grinding process, the bit offers very sharp cutting edges and high Runout Accuracy, which is particularly beneficial for metalworking where hole quality matters. The ground design can enable up to 40% faster drilling and may require up to 50% less feed force compared with conventional rolled HSS tools, making it easier to maintain feed rate and tool life in stationary setups.

Best practice: application, cooling and machine compatibility

This long Twist Drill is intended for use with a Drilling Machine and is particularly useful when access to the hole is restricted or the required depth exceeds standard lengths. For optimal life and hole quality, employ appropriate cutting fluid and reduced spindle speeds for hard materials. Note that ground HSS bits can be more brittle than rolled types, so stationary use with coolant is recommended for intensive work and for maintaining edge integrity.

Who benefits and where this bit excels

Manufacturers, toolrooms and maintenance technicians who require reliable deep drilling in tough materials benefit most from this long HSS‑G bit. The combination of DIN 340 Long Execution, a Bright Finished surface and the 11.5 mm Diameter makes it suitable where longer reach and stable hole geometry are decisive. The Standard Line from MetavCUT focuses on delivering a balance of performance and predictable behaviour in serial and repair operations.

FAQ

What is the best use for the Twist Drill by MetavCUT?
The MetavCUT Twist Drill long HSS‑G is primarily used for drilling high‑strength and hard materials; it is especially suited for deep holes and situations where increased reach and precise centring are required, such as work on alloyed steels and cast materials.

Which three drill types are commonly used?
Common drill categories include Metal Drill, Wood Drill and Masonry/Concrete Drill; MetavCUT supplies the Metal Drill category with the Twist Drill long execution for demanding metalworking tasks.

Can the MetavCUT Twist Drill be used in a handheld drill?
The MetavCUT Twist Drill can be used in handheld drills for light tasks, but for optimal safety and hole quality the long HSS‑G execution performs best in a stationary Drilling Machine with appropriate coolant and controlled feed.

For what are Twist Drills typically used?
Twist Drills are mainly applied when working on high‑strength materials and larger diameters; the long version is chosen for deeper bores or hard‑to‑reach positions. The ground HSS geometry is easier to regrind and remains suitable under substantial loads.
