Whether you’re drilling mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, or other non-ferrous metals, choosing the right bit material and point geometry makes the difference between smooth cutting and excessive heat, chatter, or premature wear.
In this category you’ll find individual metal drill bits for targeted applications—so you can match diameter, length, point angle, and substrate (HSS, cobalt/HSSE, carbide) to your material and setup.
Spiralbohrer (Typ N) Ø 4,3 mm · 135° · blank · extra kurz · HSS-G · DIN 1897 von MetavCUT Der Spiralbohrer (Typ N) ist ein extra kurzer HSS‑G Bohrer für Metall, der besonders für präzise Bohrungen in Blechen, Profilen und mittelharten Werkstoffen mit Handbohrmaschine geeignet ist. Extra kurze Baulänge für höhere Stabilität HSS‑G für verbesserte Verschleißfestigkeit Zylinderschaft, passend für Dreibackenfutter 135° Spitzenwinkel für härtere Werkstoffe Spirallänge 22 mm, Gesamtlänge 55 mm Robuste Materialwahl für effiziente Metallbohrungen Mit der Wahl von HSS‑G kombiniert dieses Werkzeug Zähigkeit und Warmfestigkeit, sodass Bohrungen in legierten wie unlegierten Stählen, Gussstahl, Gusseisen sowie Nichteisenmetallen zuverlässig ausgeführt werden können. Die Ø 4,3 mm Ausführung eignet sich im Standard‑Bereich für Handwerkstatt und Montage und ermöglicht direkte Bohrungen ohne zwingendes Vorbohren bei normaler Präzision. Durch die beschriebene Materialqualität wird die Standzeit erhöht und die Nacharbeit reduziert, was besonders in Serien mit mittlerer Stückzahl Zeit spart. Kompakte Bauform für enge Einbausituationen und geringes Bruchrisiko Die extra kurze Ausführung reduziert Hebelwirkung und Verdrehungsbelastung, wodurch die Bruchneigung gegenüber Standardlängen deutlich sinkt. Dies ist vorteilhaft beim Bohren in dünnwandigen Bauteilen oder an schwer zugänglichen Stellen, wo Platz begrenzt ist. Die Spirallänge 22 mm sorgt für effektive Spanabfuhr bei gängigen Materialstärken, während die Gesamtlänge 55 mm die Handhabung mit Winkelbohrern und in beengten Bohrpositionen erleichtert. Praktische Hinweise zur Anwendung und Werkzeugeinstellung Für eine optimale Leistung empfiehlt sich die Nutzung einer Handbohrmaschine mit sauberem Dreibackenfutter und moderater Vorschubkraft, da der Zylinderschaft universell einspannbar ist, aber bei sehr hohem Drehmoment zum Durchrutschen neigen kann. Der 135° Spitzenwinkel erleichtert das Anbohren härterer Werkstoffe und reduziert das „Wandern“ beim Ansetzen. Für höchste Maßgenauigkeit vorbohren oder zentrieren; bei serienmäßigen Präzisionsbohrungen sind spezielle Maschinen und Vorrichtungen zu bevorzugen. Warum Typ N und DIN 1897 Vorteile für den Alltag bringen Die Norm DIN 1897 und die Typ‑Bezeichnung Typ N kennzeichnen die klassische Normalspirale, die universell für Metallarbeiten ausgelegt ist.

The MetavCUT Twist Drill (Type N) is primarily applied to the machining of high‑strength materials and larger drill diameters; its form allows straightforward re‑grinding and it endures higher mechanical loads, making it suitable for demanding metalworking tasks. Which three drill types are there? There are three common drill categories: metal drills, wood drills and stone/concrete drills. Why is a twist drill pointed (ausgespitzt)? The pointing reduces the cross‑cut at the drill tip, which significantly lowers friction and thus the required feed forces; at the same time the sharper point improves centring of the drill in the workpiece.
Body Drill Twist Drill — 4.4 mm, 135°, Double-Sided, Bright Finished, HSS-G by MetavCUT A Body Drill twist drill designed for precision metalworking, ideal for drilling in automotive panels and thin sheet applications. Double-ended reversible design for extended use HSS-G material for precise, clean metal holes 135° tip optimized for harder materials Fully ground shank for excellent concentricity Short, robust profile for sheet-metal and bodywork Durable HSS-G construction for precise metalwork The Body Drill from MetavCUT is manufactured in HSS-G, a ground high-speed steel grade that delivers high precision and sharp cutting edges. Ground flute geometry provides superior hole quality and repeatable performance when machining alloys and steels. Because the flutes are ground rather than rolled, the result is a cleaner cutting geometry and improved concentricity, which reduces vibration and leads to consistently accurate holes. Double-sided design that extends tool life Engineered as a double-sided (double-ended) twist drill, this bit offers practical redundancy: when one tip becomes dull, the tool can be reversed and the second cutting end used, effectively doubling usable life for many workshop scenarios. The compact, short profile makes it particularly suited to tight spaces in automotive bodywork and thin-sheet operations, where a stable, robust tool is required for repeatable drilling. 135° tip and application guidance for harder materials The 135° tip angle reduces initial cutting forces and improves centring when working with harder materials such as stainless steel or tempered alloys. For users less familiar with drill geometry: a larger tip angle flattens the cutting edge, slowing initial penetration but improving stability and reducing burr formation. This makes the bit well suited for drilling in both alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast irons, and some hard plastics when used with appropriate cutting fluid and moderate speeds. Compatibility, handling and recommended use The bit features a fully ground shank designed for secure chucking in standard Drilling Machines and Hand Drills. Its short overall length and ground shank minimise runout, improving precision in repetitive tasks. For best results, use cooling lubricant when drilling tough steels and avoid excessive pecking on very hard materials to reduce the risk of breakage. This tool is aimed at bodywork professionals, metal fabricators, and maintenance technicians who require reliable performance in demanding conditions.

Yes, the MetavCUT Twist Drill (Type N) is suitable for use in sturdy hand drills as well as stationary drilling machines; its short design and fully ground shank ensure good stability and concentricity in common chucks. For what is a Twist Drill used? A Twist Drill is mainly used for machining high‑strength materials and larger hole diameters; its ground geometry makes it easy to sharpen and capable of withstanding higher loads. Which three drill types exist? The three main drill types are metal drills, wood drills and stone/concrete drills. Why are Twist Drills pointed? The pointing reduces the cross‑cut at the tip, which lowers friction and decreases the required feed force while improving centring of the tip in the Workpiece. Can you drill wood with a Twist Drill? A metal Twist Drill can be used in wood, but guidance and finish are inferior compared to dedicated wood drills; however, metal drills are easier to resharpen and exhibit less self‑feed. At what drilling depths is the Twist Drill most used? For through‑hole drilling in solid material, Twist Drills are the standard choice; they are most commonly used up to diameters around 20 mm and drill depths up to approximately 100 mm. Is HSS or HSSE better? The general belief that HSSE steels are always superior to HSS is not universally correct; decisions should be based on specific working conditions to determine whether the higher cost of HSSE is justified.
MetavCUT Twist Drill — Short, Type N, 4.4 mm, HSS‑G, DIN 338, 135° tip, Bright Finished The Twist Drill is a short HSS‑G metalworking drill designed for precise drilling on Drilling Machines and professional workshop use. Short design for increased stability Diameter 4.4 mm for precise positioning 135° tip for hard materials such as stainless steel Fully ground shank for high concentricity Complies with DIN 338 for short twist drills Precision and performance for demanding metalwork The MetavCUT Twist Drill (Short, Type N) combines HSS‑G material and a 135° tip geometry to enable efficient penetration in hard materials. The shortened overall length and flute length reduce overhang and vibration, which results in a more stable cut and better hole quality. According to manufacturer data, the ground HSS design can achieve up to 40% faster drilling with roughly 50% less feed force compared with conventional HSS bits, providing a clear productivity advantage in serial and precision tasks. Durable design with ground geometry for clean holes A ground flute geometry (CNC‑grind) gives this short twist drill very sharp cutting edges and excellent runout accuracy, which produces clean, burr‑reduced holes in metal. HSS‑G construction is ideal for machining alloyed and unalloyed steel, cast materials and non‑ferrous metals. Because ground drills can be more brittle than rolled designs, using appropriate cooling and steady fixturing is recommended to maximise tool life and prevent breakage during heavy‑duty operations. Best suited applications and user groups This Twist Drill is developed for professional workshops, toolrooms and industrial maintenance where precise metal drilling is required. Typical applications include drilling in Steel, Cast Steel, Cast Iron, Sintered Iron, Tempered Castings, Non‑Ferrous Metals and Hard Plastics. The short Type N geometry makes the bit particularly suitable for machining on Drilling Machines where stability and repeatable accuracy are priorities, rather than for freehand soft‑material work. Why tip angle and short length matter for results A 135° point angle decreases initial punching time and helps centre the drill on hard materials, reducing walk‑off and improving hole position. The short execution lowers bending moments and allows higher spindle speeds with less deflection, delivering better concentricity and longer service intervals for reaming or finishing operations. In practice, “geschliffen” (ground) means the flute geometry is cut by grinding rather than roll forming, which yields superior edge sharpness and precision at the expense of slightly increased brittleness.

For workshop applications where repeatable accuracy matters, the short execution is a practical advantage. Robust Material Choice for Long Tool Life Manufactured from HSS (High Speed Steel), this Type N Twist Drill balances hardness and toughness for sustained use in metal. HSS resists softening at elevated temperatures, which helps maintain cutting geometry during continuous operation. For users less familiar with the term: HSS stands for High Speed Steel, a standard tool material that performs well on steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals and many plastics. The result is longer service life and fewer tool changes on production or maintenance tasks. Designed for Metal Drilling, Suited to Hand and Machine Work As a Type N normal-spiral geometry, the drill is optimised for metalworking tasks on Drilling Machines and compatible hand-operated equipment where controlled feed is applied. The 4.5 mm Diameter and 118° Tip Angle are chosen to give reliable centring and chip formation in a broad range of metals; the geometry supports common workshop procedures such as pilot hole drilling and sequential operation with larger diameters. This tool is particularly effective when stability and precision are required rather than deep-reach drilling. Practical Handling, Sharpening and Application Notes Short Twist Drills are easier to keep concentric in the Chuck and are less prone to chatter; this makes them well suited for repeatable workshop tasks and for operators seeking consistent results. If reconditioning is needed, the normal spiral and HSS material allow straightforward resharpening on conventional tool grinders, prolonging service life. For safe, efficient use, maintain steady feed, adequate cutting speed and appropriate lubrication when machining steel to reduce heat and extend tool life.

MetavCUT Body Drill (Karosseriebohrer) — Twist Drill for Drilling Machine, 4.5 mm Ø, 135° tip, HSS‑G, double‑sided, bright finished, fully ground shaft The MetavCUT Body Drill is a double‑sided Twist Drill engineered for precise metalworking on drilling machines, combining HSS‑G cutting performance with a 135° tip for hard materials. Double‑ended design for two usable tips High‑speed HSS‑G for precise metal drilling 135° tip for harder materials like stainless steel Fully ground shank for high roundness accuracy Bright finished surface for improved corrosion resistance Engineered for hard metals with lower feed force and fast cutting The MetavCUT Body Drill uses HSS‑G material to achieve high cutting performance in demanding conditions. The ground geometry results in very sharp cutting edges and improved roundness, which can lead to up to 40% faster drilling and approximately 50% less required feed force compared with conventional HSS drills. This makes the tool particularly efficient when working with alloyed and unalloyed steels, cast steels and other hard metals, delivering clean holes with minimal burr formation. Practical double‑ended design and robust shaft for workshop use A double‑sided or double‑ended Twist Drill offers clear workshop advantages: two usable tips in one short, stable body. If one tip becomes blunt, the drill can be reversed and the opposite tip used, effectively providing two tools in a single bit. The fully ground shaft and bright finished surface contribute to high concentricity and easier handling in chucks, while the compact overall length increases stability when drilling thin sheets or rivet holes. Best applications and dimensional clarity for correct tool selection Designed for metalworking, this Body Drill is suitable for Drilling Machines and hand drills where precision is required. Key dimensions are a diameter of 4.5 mm, a spiral/ flute length of 13 mm and an overall length of 58 mm. Typical materials include cast iron, sintered iron, tempered cast, non‑ferrous metals and hard plastics; the 135° tip reduces thrust and improves centring in tougher substrates. Choose appropriate speeds and coolant when machining harder alloys. Simple recommendations to prolong life and improve hole quality To avoid chipping or breakage, use moderate speeds and adequate cooling when working with hard materials, and secure the workpiece to eliminate runout. The ground flute geometry improves chip evacuation, but the short spiral length is optimised for through‑holes and thin‑section drilling rather than deep boring. For repeatable, high‑quality results, prefer stationary setups with coolant and verify feed rates to match the stated benefits of reduced feed force. Strong recommendation: the MetavCUT Body Drill is ideal for professionals seeking durable, precise metal drilling — for further technical advice or assistance contact METAV Werkzeuge for expert consultation via email info@metav-werkzeuge.com, phone +49 2822 7131930 or WhatsApp +49 170 2837271 Designation: Body Drill (Karosseriebohrer) Brand: MetavCUT SKU: 58045‑FDA Diameter: 4.5 mm Tip angle: 135° Material: HSS‑G Execution: double‑sided Colour / Finish: bright finished Intended for: Drilling Machine / Hand Drill Spiral length: 13 mm Overall length: 58 mm Shaft execution: fully ground Model series: Standard Line Application: Drills for metal Packaging unit: 10 Hersteller: Metav Werkzeuge GmbH; Parkring 45; 46446 Emmerich; Germany; info@metav-werkzeuge.com FAQ Can the MetavCUT Body Drill be used in a handheld drill or is a drilling machine required? The MetavCUT Body Drill is suitable for use in both a drilling machine and a robust hand drill, but best results—especially in hard or alloyed metals—are achieved with a stable drilling machine and appropriate coolant to reduce heat and prevent breakage. Why choose a double‑sided Twist Drill like the MetavCUT Body Drill? A double‑sided Twist Drill provides two usable tips in one tool; when one end becomes blunt it can simply be reversed, offering greater cost efficiency and reduced downtime in workshops handling thin sheets or riveted assemblies. For what is a Twist Drill used? A Twist Drill is mainly applied to machining high‑strength materials and larger drill diameters; its design allows relatively easy re‑grinding and it withstands higher loads, making it especially common for metalworking tasks and holes in sheet or structural components. Which three drill types exist? There are three common drill families: metal drills, wood drills and masonry/concrete drills. Each type is optimised for material‑specific geometry and cutting behaviour.

Twist Drill — Extra Long HSS‑G Twist Drill, 4.5 mm, 135°, Bright Finished, Fully Ground, DIN 1869 (MetavCUT) The Twist Drill is an extra long HSS‑G drill designed for deep metal drilling with a 135° point angle for reliable centring and efficient penetration. Extra long design for deep hole access HSS‑G fully ground for precise bore quality 135° point angle for harder materials Bright finished surface for corrosion protection Compatible with Handheld Drilling Machines Faster, cleaner metal drilling for demanding tasks The HSS‑G composition of this Twist Drill delivers a combination of hardness and toughness optimised for metalworking. Because the flutes are CNC ground rather than rolled, the tool achieves high roundness accuracy and razor‑sharp cutting edges, which produce cleaner Holes and extend tool life under appropriate cooling. One major benefit is the documented performance gain: the ground HSS design can drill up to 40% faster and requires up to 50% less feed force compared with conventional HSS variants, making it particularly efficient for alloys and unalloyed steels. Designed for deep-hole applications and accessibility With a Spiral Length of 160 mm and an Overall Length of 235 mm, this extra long Twist Drill reaches depths that standard lengths cannot. The extended geometry is ideal when drilling in confined or hard‑to‑reach positions, or when a longer reach is needed from a Drilling Machine or handheld device. The tool’s bright finished surface eases chip evacuation and reduces surface friction during long penetration depths, supporting stable, repeatable results. Optimised geometry for hard materials and precision The 135° Point Angle of this Twist Drill reduces walking and improves centring when working with harder Metals such as stainless steel or cast materials. The fully ground shank ensures superior concentricity in chucks, translating into better hole tolerances and lower run‑out. For users needing precision bores in components, this geometry offers a clear advantage: faster initial engagement and a reduced tendency for the tool to skid during the start of the cut. Practical guidance: use, cooling and sharpening Although the ground HSS design gives excellent cutting performance, users should note the material can be more brittle than rolled types and benefits from correct application. Apply steady cutting speeds, adequate coolant and moderate feed to avoid chipping. The Twist Drill is easier to regrind when required, and the sharpened geometry reduces radial forces, meaning less effort during re‑sharpening. For stationary machine work and workshop conditions, cooling and secure clamping are recommended to maximise service life.

The MetavCUT Twist Drill is intended primarily for metalwork; its HSS‑G composition and 135° point angle make it suitable for legierte und unlegierte Stahl, Gussstahl, Gusseisen, Sintereisen, Temperguss, Nichteisenmetalle and hard plastics where precision and durability are required. Is the MetavCUT Twist Drill suitable for handheld drilling machines? Yes, the MetavCUT Twist Drill can be used with a Handheld Drilling Machine, but due to its extra long geometry and the ground HSS design, stable clamping, reduced feed forces and adequate cooling are advised to prevent chipping and ensure safe operation. For what is a Twist Drill used? A Twist Drill is mainly applied when machining high‑strength materials and larger bore diameters; the form is easy to regrind and endures higher loads, which is why the MetavCUT Twist Drill is chosen for demanding metalworking tasks. Which three drill types exist? The three main drill types are metal drills, wood drills and stone/concrete drills; the MetavCUT Twist Drill belongs to the metal drill category and is optimised for such applications. Why are Twist Drills sharpened? Sharpening reduces the cross‑edge at the tip of the Twist Drill, which lowers friction and therefore decreases required feed forces, while improving centring and initial penetration of the MetavCUT Twist Drill. Can the MetavCUT Twist Drill be used to drill wood? A metal drill can be used in wood, but guidance and finish are inferior compared with dedicated wood bits; the MetavCUT Twist Drill can cut wood but may show poorer tracking and a less clean hole while being easier to regrind and exhibiting lower self‑feed characteristics. At which drilling depths is the Twist Drill most commonly used? A through‑hole in solid material is commonly executed 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, and the extra long MetavCUT variant is especially useful for deeper requirements. What is better, HSS or HSSE? The general belief that HSSE is always superior to HSS is not universally true. Consider whether your working conditions actually justify the higher purchase cost of HSSE before deciding; the MetavCUT HSS‑G grade may already meet many demanding applications.
Twist Drill — Drill for Metal (Ø 4.5 mm, 135° Point, Extra Long, Bright Finished, HSS-G, DIN 1869) The Twist Drill is an Extra Long Drill for Metal designed for deep drilling in Drilling Machines and workshop applications. Extra Long design for deep drilling Fully Ground shank for high runout accuracy HSS-G Material for hard metal performance 135° Point Angle optimized for tough alloys Bright Finished surface for consistent chip evacuation Deep reach and faster metal removal for demanding tasks Engineered as an Extra-Long solution, this Twist Drill delivers extended reach with a Gesamtlänge of 295 mm and a Spiral Length of 200 mm, making it ideal for deep-hole tasks. The HSS-G construction and the special flute geometry enable up to 40 % faster drilling and require 50 % less Anpresskraft compared with conventional HSS tools, which translates to higher productivity on long runs and reduced operator fatigue. Precision geometry that creates clean, accurate holes Thanks to the Fully Ground flute geometry and precise Points, the drill achieves very sharp cutting edges and excellent Rundlaufgenauigkeit. The 135° Point Angle is tailored for harder Werkstoffe and shortens Anbohrzeit, while the DIN 1869 specification ensures consistent quality. Because ground tools can be more brittle, stationary operation with coolant is recommended to preserve tool life and hole quality. Suited materials and professional workshop applications This Twist Drill is intended for a wide range of Metall applications, including legierten and unlegierten Stahl, Gussstahl, Gusseisen, Sintereisen, Temperguss, Nichteisenmetalle and Hartkunststoff, and is rated for materials up to 1000 N/mm². Workshops, toolrooms and industrial users benefit from the combination of depth capability and cutting performance when working on components that require deep, precise bores. Handling, sharpening and practical tips for longer service life For best results mount the drill concentrically in a suitable Chuck of a Drilling Machine and use sufficient coolant during operation. The Ausspitzung (point preparation) reduces Querschneide and lowers Reibkräfte, so lower Vorschubkräfte are sufficient and centering improves. If regrinding is necessary, maintain the 135° geometry to preserve performance; note that ground HSS-G drills are easier to resharpen yet require careful handling to avoid breakage. If unsure whether this tool fits specific requirements, METAV Werkzeuge offers comprehensive technical advice to help select the right solution.

The MetavCUT Twist Drill is primarily applied to the machining of high-strength Werkstoffe and large bore diameters; its form allows relatively easy resharpening and it withstands considerable Belastungen, making it suitable for demanding metalworking tasks. Which three drill types exist? There are three common drill categories: Metal Drills, Wood Drills and Stone/Concrete Drills; the MetavCUT Twist Drill belongs to the Metal Drills group and is optimized for metalwork. Why are Twist Drills pointed? The point geometry reduces the Querschneide at the Tip of the Twist Drill; by pointing, frictional forces are significantly lowered and smaller Vorschubkräfte are needed while the Tip centers better in the Workpiece. Can you use metal drills in wood? A Metal Drill such as the MetavCUT Twist Drill can be used in Wood, but guidance is poorer and the bore finish may be less clean; however, Metal Drills are easier to resharpen and show less self-feed tendency. For which bore depths is the Twist Drill most commonly used? A through-hole is commonly executed with a Twist Drill; for diameters up to 20 mm and drill depths up to 100 mm, the Twist Drill is the most frequently used tool, while the extra-long MetavCUT version extends that capability for deeper bores. Is HSS or HSSE better? The general belief that HSSE steels are inherently superior to HSS is not universally correct; evaluate working conditions carefully to decide whether the higher investment in HSSE is justified for your specific MetavCUT application.
Twist Drill — Type N, 4.5 mm, 135°, Extra Short, Bright Finished, HSS‑G, DIN 1897 (Cylindrical Shank) by MetavCUT The Twist Drill Type N is an extra short HSS‑G drill designed for Drilling Machines and Hand Drills, offering high stability and efficient metalworking in tight or thin‑walled components. Extra‑short design for improved stability Optimised 135° tip for harder materials HSS‑G construction for long tool life Cylindrical shank fits standard chucks Standard Line quality for professional use Compact design increases stability and reduces breakage The Twist Drill in an extra short execution combines a reduced Overall Length with a shortened Spiral Length to deliver superior Verdrehungsfestigkeit (torsional stability) compared with standard drills. Shorter geometry reduces the lever arm and thus the risk of bending and breakage, which is especially valuable when working in constrained assemblies or on thin sheet and profile parts. The result is more reliable hole quality and fewer tool changes during demanding metalworking tasks. 135° point angle and Type N spiral for tougher materials A 135° tip halves the tendency to wander on tough surfaces and shortens the initial penetration phase, which is advantageous when machining stainless steel and other hard alloys. The Type N normal spiral profile is optimised for Metal work and provides consistent chip evacuation and cutting behaviour across legierte und unlegierte Stähle, Gusswerkstoffe and non‑ferrous metals.

Yes. The MetavCUT Twist Drill Type N with a Cylindrical Shank is designed for use in Hand Drills and standard chucks; its Extra Short geometry improves stability in manual operations and reduces the risk of breakage when clamping and feeding correctly. What is the Twist Drill used for? The Twist Drill Type N by MetavCUT is primarily applied to the machining of high‑strength materials and larger hole diameters; its form is straightforward to regrind and withstands higher loads, making it ideal for steels, cast materials and hard plastics. Which three drill types exist? Common categories are Metal drills (such as the MetavCUT Twist Drill Type N), Wood drills, and Stone/Concrete drills. Why are Twist Drills pointed? Twist Drills are pointed to reduce the cross‑cut at the tip; this lowering of the cross‑edge decreases friction so that significantly lower feed forces are required and the drill centers more reliably in the workpiece. Can a metal drill be used in wood? A Metal drill such as the MetavCUT Twist Drill can be used in Wood, but guidance and finish may be inferior compared with dedicated Wood drills; however, metal drills are easier to regrind and tend to produce less self‑feeding. For which drilling depths is the Twist Drill most commonly used? A through‑hole in solid material is typically executed with a Twist Drill; for diameters up to 20 mm and drilling depths up to 100 mm the Twist Drill is the most commonly used tool. Is HSS or HSSE better? There is no universal answer; the belief that HSSE steels are always superior to HSS is incorrect. Assess whether your working conditions justify the higher cost of HSSE before choosing.

What Matters Most When Choosing Metal Drill Bits
Key features of a proper metal drill bit
- Spiral flutes that evacuate chips efficiently and help reduce heat build-up.
- Point geometry (most commonly 118° or 135°) to suit different metals and drilling conditions.
- Consistent grind for better concentricity (runout), cleaner holes, and easier starts.
118° vs 135°: which point angle should you use?
Point angle affects how the bit centers, how much feed pressure you need, and how well it performs in tougher materials. A practical guideline:
- 118°: a popular general-purpose angle for many everyday metal drilling tasks.
- 135° (often split point): tends to reduce “walking” and can work better in harder or tougher metals with less required feed pressure.
HSS, HSSE (cobalt) and carbide: choosing the right substrate
For metal drilling, the drill bit’s substrate largely determines heat resistance, wear resistance, and how forgiving it is in real-world use:
- HSS: tough and versatile—great for many standard metal applications and more forgiving in less rigid setups.
- HSS-G (ground HSS): improved precision and hole quality thanks to a more accurate grind.
- HSSE / cobalt (commonly 5–8% Co): higher hot hardness and heat resistance—especially useful for stainless steel and tougher alloys.
- Carbide: very high wear resistance and performance in rigid setups, but typically more brittle and less tolerant of side load.
Practical tips for better results in metal
- Use the right speed: harder metals and larger diameters generally require lower RPM.
- Use cutting fluid: lubrication/cooling improves finish and extends tool life—especially in steel and stainless.
- Maintain steady feed: consistent pressure supports proper cutting and prevents rubbing (heat).
- Pilot drill when needed: for larger diameters, a pilot hole can improve accuracy and reduce load.
FAQ: Metal Drill Bits
Which drill bits are best for metal?
-
The best choice depends on the metal and how you’re drilling. As a quick guide:
- Aluminum & non-ferrous metals: quality HSS or HSS-G for clean cutting and chip flow.
- Mild steel: HSS-G is a strong all-round option for accuracy and durability.
- Stainless steel & tougher alloys: HSSE/cobalt for higher heat resistance and longer tool life.
Which drill bit is most suitable for metal?
-
For general metalwork, a ground HSS twist drill (HSS-G) is usually the best balance of price, precision, and durability. If you frequently drill stainless steel or tough materials, step up to HSSE/cobalt. For cleaner starts in hard metals, a 135° split point can help reduce wandering.
How can you identify a metal drill bit?
-
- Twist-drill shape with spiral flutes designed for metal chips.
- Common point angles around 118° or 135°.
- Markings such as HSS, HSS-G, HSSE/Co (on the packaging and sometimes on the shank).
- Clean cutting edges and a tip geometry aimed at stable cutting rather than aggressive tearing.
What’s better: HSS or HSSE?
-
HSS is a reliable standard for many metals and is generally more forgiving. HSSE (cobalt) offers higher hot hardness and heat resistance, making it the better choice for stainless steel and tougher steels—especially for repeated drilling or higher temperatures.
Are carbide or cobalt drill bits better?
-
Both can be “better,” depending on your setup and material:
- Cobalt/HSSE: a practical upgrade for hard and stainless steels; a strong balance of toughness and heat performance.
- Carbide: maximum wear resistance and speed potential in rigid, well-aligned setups, but more brittle and sensitive to side load.
In many workshop and handheld scenarios, cobalt/HSSE is the most user-friendly high-performance option. Choose carbide when you have a stable machine setup and need top wear resistance.
