HSS drill bit KREATOR 7 x 109 mm KRT010116 for metal and wood

HSS drill bit KREATOR 7 x 109 mm KRT010116 is a general-purpose twist drill designed for drilling in metal and wood. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), this bit combines wear resistance and heat tolerance to maintain cutting performance during repeated use. The 7 mm diameter and 109 mm overall length make it suitable for creating precise through-holes and pilot holes in a range of light to medium-duty workshop and repair tasks. The bit fits standard drill chucks and can be used with both handheld and stationary drills.

Advantages

The HSS construction provides durable cutting edges and improved resistance to softening when drilling at higher speeds, extending tool life compared with standard carbon-steel bits. Its twist-flute geometry ensures effective chip evacuation for cleaner holes and reduced clogging when working with metal or wood. The 7 mm diameter offers a balance between strength and material removal rate, while the 109 mm length gives extra reach for thicker workpieces or when using drill guides and jigs. The bit’s compatibility with standard chucks simplifies tool changes and broadens application across common drilling equipment.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in mild steel, non-ferrous metals and sheet metal
• Creating pilot holes and through-holes in soft and hardwoods
• Workshop assembly, maintenance and repair tasks
• Use with handheld drills, drill presses and portable drilling systems

Key specifications

• Material: high-speed steel (HSS)
• Diameter: 7 mm
• Overall length: 109 mm
• Type: twist drill bit (general-purpose)
• Suitable materials: metal and wood

How to use

Secure the drill bit in a properly tightened chuck and select a drilling speed appropriate for the material—lower speeds for harder metals, higher speeds for wood. Mark the drilling position and, if needed, use a center punch for accurate starts on metal. Apply steady, even pressure and keep the drill perpendicular to the work surface. For metal, periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips and, if necessary, use cutting fluid to reduce heat. For wood, ensure good chip evacuation and avoid excessive force that can cause splintering. Inspect the bit after use and store it dry to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use protective eyewear and gloves when drilling; choose appropriate drill speed and cooling for the workpiece material to maximize bit life and hole quality.
