Drill bit GRAPHITE HSS cylindrical 2 mm for metal, MPN 55H010

GRAPHITE cylindrical HSS drill bit with a 2 mm diameter is designed for drilling metal and creating precise small-diameter holes. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), this drill bit combines hardness and heat resistance to withstand the temperatures and pressures typical of metalworking operations. Its cylindrical shank fits standard chucks, making it compatible with handheld drills and drill presses for a wide range of workshop and maintenance tasks.

Advantages

The HSS material provides good wear resistance and retains cutting performance at elevated temperatures, allowing continuous drilling without rapid dulling. The 2 mm cutting diameter supports accurate, precision drilling of thin sheets and small metal components. A cylindrical shank ensures secure clamping in chucks and stable rotation, reducing runout and improving hole quality. The straightforward geometry and proven material choice make this drill bit a reliable option for general metalworking needs.

Suitable for

• Drilling small-diameter holes in steel and non-ferrous metals
• Precision work on metal components and brackets
• Maintenance, repair and light fabrication tasks
• Use with handheld drills and bench drill presses

Key specifications

• Material: high-speed steel (HSS)
• Tip type: standard twist geometry for metal drilling
• Shank type: cylindrical (straight) shank compatible with standard chucks
• Nominal diameter: 2 mm
• Typical applications: thin metal sheets, small metal parts, precision holes

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the chuck, ensuring the shank is seated fully and tightened to prevent slipping. Select an appropriate drilling speed: higher speeds for small diameters in softer metals, lower speeds for harder steels. Apply steady, moderate pressure and maintain alignment perpendicular to the workpiece for accurate holes. Use cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling steel to reduce heat buildup and extend tool life. After drilling, clear chips from the hole and inspect the edge for burrs; deburr as necessary.
