When it may not be suitable
This drill bit is not intended for drilling into hardened steel, stainless steel alloys, or masonry, as these materials require specialized cobalt or carbide-tipped bits to prevent premature wear or breakage. It is also not suitable for use in impact drilling modes on hammer drills.
Key specifications
Diameter: 11.5 mm
Material: High-speed steel (HSS-R)
Standard: DIN 338
Type: N (normal helix angle)
Application: Metal drilling
How to use
To achieve the best results, secure the workpiece firmly in a vice or clamp to prevent movement during the drilling process. Insert the drill bit into the chuck of your power drill or drill press, ensuring it is tightened securely. Start the drilling process at a moderate speed, applying steady and controlled pressure. It is recommended to use a suitable cutting oil or coolant to reduce friction and heat, which will significantly extend the lifespan of the drill bit and improve the quality of the hole.
What to consider before purchase
Ensure your drill chuck is compatible with an 11.5 mm shank diameter.
Verify that the material you intend to drill is compatible with HSS-R steel.
Consider using a center punch to mark the drilling location for higher precision.
Usage recommendations
Always wear appropriate eye protection and safety gear when operating drilling equipment. Regularly inspect the drill bit for signs of wear or dullness and replace it if necessary to maintain drilling efficiency and safety.
