Drill bit set KREATOR KRT012001 HSS 2–8 mm, 6 pieces

KREATOR KRT012001 HSS 2–8 mm, 6 pieces is a compact drill bit set designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastics. The set includes six high-speed steel bits covering common small to medium diameters from 2 mm up to 8 mm, providing a practical selection for workshop tasks, home repair and DIY projects. High-speed steel construction ensures consistent cutting performance and improved wear resistance compared with regular carbon drills.

Advantages

The HSS material maintains hardness at elevated temperatures and offers reliable edge retention for repeated drilling operations. The set’s diameter range covers typical fastener and clearance hole sizes used in assembly and repair work, reducing the need to switch between different kits. A compact arrangement of bits simplifies storage and transport while preserving bit geometry for accurate results in a variety of materials.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in mild steel, sheet metal and non-ferrous metals
• Woodworking tasks including pilot holes and dowel placements
• Plastics and acrylics where clean, burr-free holes are required
• Home maintenance, furniture assembly and light fabrication
• General DIY and small workshop projects

Key specifications

• Material: High-speed steel (HSS)
• Included diameters: 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm
• Number of pieces: 6
• Intended materials: metal, wood, plastics
• Shank type: straight round shank (suitable for standard drill chucks)

How to use

Select the appropriate drill bit diameter for the required hole. Secure the workpiece and mark the drilling point. Fit the chosen HSS bit in a compatible drill chuck and tighten securely. For metal drilling, use a cutting oil or lubricant to reduce heat and extend bit life; for wood and plastics, drill at moderate speed to avoid burning or melting. Apply steady feed pressure and clear chips regularly to maintain drilling accuracy. After use, clean off debris and store the bits in their case to protect cutting edges.

Usage recommendations

Use progressive speed and moderate pressure: lower speeds for larger diameters and metals, higher speeds for small diameters and wood. When drilling thin sheet metal, support the workpiece to prevent deformation. Inspect bits before use and replace any that show significant wear or chipping to ensure safe, accurate drilling.
