Drill bit set AWTools AW41055 — pack of 10

AWTools AW41055 — pack of 10 HSS-G drill bits supplied in a compact case for storage and transport. These precision-ground, double-sided high-speed steel bits feature a 118° point angle and are intended for general-purpose drilling in a range of workshop and home environments. The set covers common diameters for routine metalworking and plastic drilling tasks and is sold as a multi-pack suitable for use with compatible hand drills and drill presses.

Advantages

The drill bits are made of HSS-G high-speed steel with precision grinding for consistent cutting performance and longer edge life compared with unground bits. The double-sided design allows for balanced cutting and easier regrinding when required. A 118° point angle improves centering and reduces walking on flat surfaces, helping to achieve cleaner starts. The included case keeps bits organized and protected, making the set convenient for transport and storage.

Suitable for

• Drilling alloyed and unalloyed steel
• Drilling grey cast iron
• Drilling non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and brass
• Drilling various plastics
• General workshop, construction site, and home DIY tasks

Key specifications

• Material: HSS-G high-speed steel, precision ground
• Tip geometry: 118° point angle
• Flute: double-sided design
• Pack contents: 10 drill bits supplied in a storage case
• Intended materials: alloyed and unalloyed steel, grey cast iron, non-ferrous metals, plastic

How to use

Choose the correct drill bit diameter for the required hole and secure it in the drill chuck with proper clamping. Use appropriate cutting speed and feed for the material being drilled: lower speeds for harder metals, higher speeds for softer non-ferrous metals and plastics. Apply steady pressure and allow the bit to cut without excessive force. For metal drilling, use cutting fluid or coolant to reduce heat and prolong tool life; for plastics, reduce speed and avoid overheating to prevent melting. After use, clean chips from flutes and store bits in the provided case.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metal, start with a small pilot hole for large diameters, maintain firm workpiece clamping, and use cutting fluid to extend bit life. Regularly inspect cutting edges and resharpen when necessary; the precision-ground, double-sided geometry supports regrinding. Avoid excessive heat buildup when drilling plastics by reducing speed and using intermittent drilling.
