8mm HSS-G Twist Drill DIN 338 ,short, TIN-coated - MetavCUT

MetavCUT Twist Drill (Short Twist Drill) — 8 mm, 118°, TIN-coated, Short, DIN 338, HSS-G The MetavCUT Twist Drill is a short Twist Drill designed for precise metalworking with an 8 mm diameter and a 118° point angle for reliable centring in a wide range of metals. MetavCUT Twist Drill short 8 mm TIN-coated for reduced friction and longer life HSS-G fully ground for precise metal drilling 118° Point angle for reliable centring Conforms to DIN 338 for short twist drills Faster, more precise metal drilling with reduced effort The short design delivers higher stability and less deflection compared with longer drills, which translates into cleaner holes and fewer rejects when working with metal. The HSS-G (ground high-speed steel) geometry enables up to 40% faster drilling and requires around 50% less feed force than conventional HSS drills; this reduces operator fatigue and shortens cycle times in production environments. The combination of short overhang and a fully ground flute results in improved runout accuracy, especially when used in a stable drilling set-up such as a drilling machine. Durable coating and optimised geometry for longer tool life A TIN-coated surface significantly lowers friction and helps to reduce wear when machining alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast materials and non-ferrous metals. With appropriate cooling, the Titanium Nitride layer increases service life and keeps cutting edges sharper for longer, so fewer tool changes are needed. The 118° point angle eases centring on slightly curved or coated surfaces and balances entry aggressiveness with edge strength, which is beneficial when drilling materials like aluminium, copper and hard plastics. Engineered for metal: materials and standards explained Conformity to DIN 338 indicates this tool is a short twist drill with a cylindrical shank manufactured from HSS and produced either by grinding or rolling; the MetavCUT version is ground, which provides very sharp cutting edges and high concentricity. Ground drills excel in metalworking because the flute geometry and primary cutting edges are precise, producing accurate hole dimensions and improved surface finish. Note: ground HSS drills can be more brittle than rolled types and perform best with steady clamping and adequate cooling. Practical use cases and operator guidance This Twist Drill is intended primarily for drilling metal on stationary or portable drilling machines and is suitable for machinists, toolrooms and maintenance shops requiring reproducible, high-quality holes. For best results use moderate spindle speeds, apply a suitable coolant for steels and clamp the workpiece securely. The fully ground shank eases chuck gripping and reduces slippage.
