MetavCUT Body Drill – Twist Drill, Ø 4.1 mm, 135°, Double-sided, Bright finished, HSS‑G, Fully ground

The MetavCUT Body Drill is a double‑ended Twist Drill designed for precision metalworking in Drilling Machines, offering a 135° tip angle and a fully ground shank for high concentric accuracy.

• HSS‑G construction for hard metals
• Double‑ended design for extended usability
• 135° tip angle for stainless steel and hard alloys
• Fully ground shank for precise concentricity
• Bright finished surface for smooth chip flow

Outstanding cutting performance for demanding metals

Designed for work with legated and unlegated steels, this Twist Drill delivers high cutting performance thanks to its HSS‑G alloy and a 135° tip angle. The geometry reduces radial forces when entering hard materials, so drilling starts cleaner and with less wandering. Users benefit from faster penetration in tough substrates and a reduced risk of workpiece damage. Practical workshops find the shorter, double‑ended format especially suited to sheet and bodywork tasks where repeatable, centred holes are required.

Long life through precise grinding and surface finish

A CNC grind of the flutes creates very sharp cutting edges and excellent runout properties, while the bright finished surface supports consistent chip evacuation. This ground manufacturing approach yields cleaner holes and longer usable life under appropriate cooling. The fully ground shank improves centring in chucks and reduces vibration, which in turn enhances tool life and hole quality when used in a stable Drilling Machine setup.

Applications, guidance and safe handling in the workshop

Engineered for metalworking, the Twist Drill is particularly effective on cast materials, Tempered Steels, Non‑Ferrous Metals and Hard Plastics. For best results, select appropriate cutting speeds and use coolant for higher alloy steels. When turning a blunt side, the double‑ended design allows immediate reuse by flipping the tool, providing operational efficiency in production or maintenance environments. Always secure the workpiece and observe safety practices when working with high‑speed Metal Drilling.

Who benefits most and why experts choose this design

Maintenance technicians, panel beaters and precision shops benefit from the combination of double‑ended utility and HSS‑G sharpness. The reduced axial force and improved centring capability make the drill a practical choice for repeatable holemaking in bodywork and thin‑plate metal applications. MetavCUT’s Standard Line aims to balance robust performance with straightforward handling for both station‑based and mobile Drilling Machine work.

FAQ

What is the best use for the MetavCUT Body Drill Twist Drill?
The MetavCUT Body Drill Twist Drill is primarily used for machining high‑strength metals and larger drilling diameters; its double‑ended design and HSS‑G composition make it suitable for demanding bodywork and thin‑plate applications where robust, repeatable holes are required.

Can the MetavCUT Body Drill be used in handheld drills?
The MetavCUT Body Drill Twist Drill is intended for use with Drilling Machines but can be used in suitable Hand Drills when proper clamping and reduced cutting speeds are observed; for best performance and safety, a stable Drilling Machine with coolant is recommended.

What are Twist Drills primarily used for?
Twist Drills are mainly applied in the machining of high‑strength materials and larger drill diameters; their design enables straightforward resharpening and they withstand higher loads, making them ideal for metalworking and bodywork tasks.

Which three drill types exist?
There are three common families of drill: Metal Drills, Wood Drills, and Stone/Concrete Drills.

Why are Twist Drills pointed?
Pointing reduces the secondary cutting edge at the tip of the Twist Drill, which lowers friction forces and therefore decreases required feed force while improving centre‑holding accuracy in the workpiece.

Can a metal drill be used to drill wood?
A Metal Drill can be used in wood, but guidance and hole finish are generally inferior compared to purpose‑made Wood Drills. Metal Drills are easier to resharpen and tend to have less aggressive self‑feed characteristics.

For which drilling depths is the Twist Drill most commonly used?
A through‑hole is typically made with a Twist Drill; for diameters up to 20 mm and depths up to 100 mm, the Twist Drill is the most frequently used tool.
