Twist drill bit KWB HSS 1 pc Right hand rotation

Twist drill bit KWB HSS 1 pc Right hand rotation, DIN 338 type N, roll-forged and steam-hardened with a blue-black finish. The bit has a 118° tip angle and a reduced shank, designed for drilling larger diameters using standard electric drills. It is suitable for materials such as alloyed and mild steel, castings, non-ferrous metals and hard plastics. The drill is supplied as a single piece in blister packaging.

Advantages

The roll-forged HSS construction and steam hardening provide increased durability and wear resistance while the blue-black finish offers corrosion protection. The 118° tip angle and precision-ground geometry ensure reliable centring and efficient chip removal. The reduced shank allows use in drills with limited chuck capacity.

Suitable for

• Alloyed and mild steel
• Castings
• Non-ferrous metals (e.g., aluminium, brass)
• Hard plastics
• Drilling large diameters with standard electric drills

How to use

Install the reduced shank into a compatible drill chuck with the correct capacity for the drill diameter (10 mm or 13 mm capacity as specified). Secure the bit tightly, set the drill to right-hand rotation and select an appropriate speed for the material being drilled. Apply steady pressure, avoid excessive feed that may cause overheating, and retract periodically to clear chips when drilling deep holes.

Usage recommendations

For best service life, use suitable cutting fluid or coolant when drilling metals, select lower speeds for harder materials, and ensure the drill chuck matches the reduced shank size. Store the bit dry and protected to preserve the blue-black finish.
