Drill bit pack AWTools AW41960 — 5 pieces

AWTools AW41960 — 5 pieces is a pack of five identical drill bits designed for general drilling tasks. Each bit is made from HSS-G M2 high-speed steel with precision grinding and a black oxide finish. The two-cutting-edge geometry and a centering point with a 135° point angle provide controlled penetration and reliable hole quality. The set is supplied together in a case for convenient storage and transport.

Advantages

The HSS-G M2 material offers high wear resistance while maintaining toughness, which reduces the risk of breakage during normal use. Precision-ground flutes and two cutting edges improve drilling accuracy and produce cleaner holes. The black oxide coating enhances corrosion resistance and reduces friction for smoother cutting. The uniform pack of five identical bits ensures quick replacements or multiple simultaneous setups for repetitive tasks.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in alloyed and unalloyed steel
• Working with grey cast iron
• Drilling non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and brass
• Drilling through plastics and composite materials
• Use in hand drills and drill drivers for general workshop tasks

Key specifications

• Material: HSS-G M2 high-speed steel
• Tip geometry: centering point with 135° point angle
• Cutting edges: two-flute, two cutting edges, precision ground
• Surface treatment: black oxide finish
• Package contents: 5 identical drill bits supplied in a storage case
• Designed use: suitable for steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals and plastics

How to use

Select the appropriate bit size for the intended hole and secure it firmly in the chuck of a hand drill or drill driver. Use steady, moderate feed pressure and appropriate spindle speed for the material being drilled; lower speeds are generally recommended for hard metals and higher speeds for softer metals and plastics. Apply cutting fluid or lubrication when drilling steel or other metals to reduce heat and extend tool life. Clear chips regularly to avoid clogging and verify hole alignment using the centering point before full-depth drilling.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match drill speed and feed to the material: lower RPMs for hardened or alloyed steels, higher RPMs for aluminium and plastics. Use light cutting oil when drilling ferrous metals to reduce wear. Store the bits in their case to protect the ground cutting edges and prevent corrosion.
