By pointing, friction forces are significantly lowered which reduces the required feed force and improves centring of the drill tip in the workpiece. Can a metal twist drill be used to drill wood? A metal twist drill can be used in wood, but guidance and hole finish are typically inferior compared with dedicated wood drills. Metal bits are easier to resharpen and show less aggressive self-feeding. For which drilling depths is the twist drill most used? Solid drilling is commonly performed with a twist drill. For diameters up to 20 mm and drilling depths up to 100 mm, the twist drill is the most frequently used tool. Is HSS or HSSE better? The common assumption that HSSE is categorically superior to HSS is not correct. Assess whether the specific working conditions justify the higher cost of HSSE before deciding.
