This design produces a cleaner hole with reduced burr formation and enables an extremely fast pilot action, lowering the required feed force and conserving motor torque in portable drills. Built from HSS and finished with RUNaTEC coating, the bit combines thermal stability and abrasion resistance to maintain cutting performance over longer production runs. The result is an efficient workflow and a consistent hole quality that supports repeatable processes. Secure clamping and precise centring for handheld use A notable practical advantage is the 3‑flat shank, which prevents the bit from rotating in the chuck and improves torque transmission in hand‑held applications. The FLOWSTEP® tip and cross‑ground point geometry permit point‑exact centring without prior centre‑punching, even on round surfaces such as pipes, reducing setup time and simplifying single‑operator tasks. With two cutting edges and a spiral flute, the tool offers a calm, low‑vibration drilling action that protects both the workpiece and the operator’s tool, making it particularly suitable for workshop environments where handheld portability and accuracy matter. Durability and predictable productivity for production tasks The combination of HSS material, RUNaTEC coating and spiral fluting achieves a higher thermal endurance and substantially improved wear resistance, which can translate into up to twice the number of holes before tool replacement. This durability reduces downtime and tool‑change frequency, supporting a reliable production rhythm. The stepped geometry with a 90° step angle and a 118° point angle gives consistent chipping and easy chip evacuation. For maintenance‑oriented operations and smaller series manufacturing, the bit offers an attractive balance between longevity and consistent hole quality.
