Högert Technik Metal Drill Bit 9.0 mm, Split Point, 5 Pieces

The Högert Technik metal drill bit set includes five high-quality 9.0 mm bits engineered for precision and durability in demanding metalworking environments. These bits feature a specialized split point tip, which significantly improves centering accuracy and reduces the amount of pressure required to initiate a hole. Designed for consistent performance, they are suitable for drilling into steel, cast iron, and various non-ferrous metals, ensuring clean results and efficient chip removal.

Advantages

The primary advantage of these drill bits is the split point geometry, which prevents the bit from walking on the material surface, allowing for precise hole placement without the need for center punching. The robust construction ensures long-lasting sharpness and resistance to heat buildup during continuous use. By facilitating efficient chip evacuation, these bits minimize clogging and extend the overall service life of the tool, making them a reliable choice for both professional workshops and home improvement projects.

Suitable for

• Drilling into structural steel and alloy steel
• Working with cast iron components
• Processing non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, and brass
• Professional metal fabrication and repair tasks
• DIY metalworking and maintenance projects

When it may not be suitable

These drill bits are specifically optimized for metal applications and may not provide optimal results when used on hardened steel or extremely abrasive materials. They are not intended for masonry, concrete, or wood drilling, as the geometry is not designed for those specific material densities.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 9.0 mm
• Tip geometry: Split point
• Material compatibility: Steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals
• Quantity: 5 pieces per set

How to use

To achieve the best results, secure your workpiece firmly in a vice or clamp to prevent movement. Align the drill bit with the marked center point and apply steady, controlled pressure while maintaining a moderate drilling speed. It is recommended to use a suitable cutting oil or lubricant to reduce friction and heat, which helps preserve the cutting edge of the bit and improves the finish of the hole. Always ensure the drill bit is properly seated in the chuck of your power tool before starting.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your drill chuck supports a 9.0 mm shank diameter
• Ensure the material you intend to drill is compatible with high-speed steel metal bits
• Assess the required drilling depth to ensure the bit length is sufficient for your specific application

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and longevity, always operate at the recommended RPM for the specific metal being drilled and apply consistent lubrication to prevent overheating.
