## Summary description

High-speed steel (HSS M2) drill bit AWTools designed for drilling metal with a 17.0 mm diameter. Supplied as a single piece, this metal-cutting drill features a podtaczane (cobalt-substituted) treatment for improved wear resistance and heat tolerance during drilling. Suitable for handheld drills and drill presses for workshop, industrial, and maintenance applications.

## Long description

The AWTools HSS M2 drill bit for metal with a 17.0 mm diameter is a single-piece cutting tool intended for creating precise holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS M2) and treated with a cobalt-substituted surface (podtaczane), the bit offers improved wear resistance and higher temperature tolerance compared with untreated HSS. It is compatible with handheld drills and drill presses used in workshops, maintenance settings and light industrial applications.
Advantages
This drill bit combines the toughness of HSS M2 with a cobalt-substituted treatment that increases hardness at elevated temperatures and extends tool life under heavy cutting conditions. The single-piece construction ensures stable concentricity for more accurate holes and reduced wobble. Its geometry is suitable for general metalworking tasks, delivering consistent chip evacuation and reliable penetration in a range of sheet and plate thicknesses.
Suitable for
Drilling holes in steel and cast iron (where HSS is appropriate)
Working with stainless steel and other harder alloys in light to medium duty applications
Use in handheld electric drills and bench or pillar drill presses
Workshop maintenance, fabrication, and general metalworking tasks
When it may not be suitable
This HSS M2 bit with cobalt-substituted treatment is intended for general metal drilling but is not optimized for heavy production drilling where carbide or coated carbide tools are preferred for maximum wear resistance and speed. It may also wear faster or require slower speeds when used on extremely hard alloys or large-diameter deep-hole drilling compared with specialized drill types.
Key specifications
Material: high-speed steel HSS M2 with cobalt-substituted surface treatment
Diameter: 17.0 mm
Construction: single-piece solid drill bit
Intended use: metal drilling (ferrous and non-ferrous metals)
Compatibility: handheld drills and drill presses
How to use
Secure the workpiece and select an appropriate clamp or vice to prevent movement. Mark the drilling position and, if necessary, use a center punch to improve positional accuracy. Fit the 17.0 mm AWTools HSS M2 drill bit into the drill chuck and ensure it is tightened concentrically. Choose cutting speed and feed suitable for HSS M2 and the workpiece material—generally lower speeds for harder alloys—and apply steady pressure without forcing. Use cutting fluid or coolant to reduce heat and extend tool life. Withdraw periodically to clear chips on deep holes.
What to consider before purchase
Confirm the 17.0 mm diameter matches the required hole size and any subsequent fastener or fitting dimensions
Check that your drill or press can deliver appropriate speed and torque for a 17.0 mm HSS metal drill
Consider material type to determine whether HSS M2 with cobalt-substituted treatment is sufficient or if carbide/coated tools are required
Single-piece supply: the product is sold as one drill bit, not in a set
Usage recommendations
Use recommended cutting fluid, moderate speed and steady feed when drilling metals with this 17.0 mm HSS M2 AWTools bit to maximize life and maintain hole accuracy; reduce speed for stainless and hard alloys and clear chips regularly on deeper holes.
