Drill bit Dedra WM03260, 3.2 mm diameter, 65 mm length, metal, 2 pcs

Dedra WM03260 drill bits set includes two high-speed steel (HSS) bits with a 3.2 mm cutting diameter and 65 mm overall length, designed specifically for drilling metal. These drill bits are intended for precise hole making in thin metal sheets, brackets and small components and are compatible with both handheld drills and drill presses. The compact length and small diameter make them suitable for detailed metalworking, repair tasks and general maintenance where controlled, accurate drilling is required.

Advantages

The HSS construction provides wear resistance and heat tolerance during metal drilling, while the 3.2 mm diameter delivers fine, accurate holes. Supplied as a pair, the set offers a ready spare for repeated use or for alternating tasks without interruption. The 65 mm overall length balances reach and stiffness to reduce deflection when working with thin parts, helping maintain hole concentricity and finish quality.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in thin metal sheets and panels
• Making precise holes in brackets, enclosures and small components
• Repair and maintenance tasks using handheld drills or drill presses
• Hobby metalworking and model-making where small diameters are required

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 3.2 mm
• Overall length: 65 mm
• Material compatibility: metal
• Material: high-speed steel (HSS)
• Quantity in set: 2 pieces

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the chuck of a handheld drill or drill press, ensuring proper centering and tight clamping. Mark and, if necessary, center-punch the drilling point on the metal surface to reduce walking. Use appropriate cutting speed and feed for metal: moderate speed and steady pressure to avoid overheating. Apply cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling thicker or harder metals to extend bit life and improve chip evacuation. After use, clean chips from the flutes and store the bits dry to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metal with the Dedra WM03260 3.2 mm bits, pre-drill pilot holes for larger assemblies, use light tapping on thin sheets to avoid deformation, and keep RPMs and feed consistent. Replace the bit if signs of dulling or chipping appear to maintain hole quality and reduce risk of workpiece damage.
