Drill bit set Smart HSS for metal 1.3 mm — 10 pcs

Set of 10 Smart HSS drill bits 1.3 mm designed specifically for drilling metal. Each bit is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) to provide wear resistance and maintain cutting performance at elevated temperatures common in metalworking. The set targets small-diameter drilling tasks where accuracy and tool durability are required, and it is compatible with standard hand drills and drill presses for creating precision holes in thin sheets, brackets, enclosures and other light metal components.

Advantages

The HSS construction delivers stable cutting performance and improved resistance to heat and abrasion compared with general-purpose carbon bits, prolonging tool life during repetitive metal drilling. The small 1.3 mm diameter ensures precise, clean holes with minimal burring when used with proper feed and speed. Supplied as a set of 10, the selection reduces downtime caused by breakage and provides spare bits for continuous work. The bits’ shank size and straight flutes are suitable for gripping in common drill chucks, enabling use in both portable and benchtop drilling equipment.

Suitable for

• Drilling small-diameter holes in thin metal sheets and enclosures
• Creating pilot holes in brackets, hardware and light metal components
• Precision metalwork tasks in electronics, model making and light fabrication
• Use with hand drills and drill presses for controlled, repeatable holes

Key specifications

• Material: High-speed steel (HSS)
• Diameter: 1.3 mm
• Quantity: 10 pieces per set
• Intended workpiece: thin metal sheets and light metal components
• Compatible tools: hand drill, drill press
• Flute type: straight flutes for chip evacuation in small-diameter drilling

How to use

Secure the workpiece and mark the drilling position accurately. Select an appropriate drilling speed for 1.3 mm HSS bits and the metal type — lower speeds for harder metals and higher speeds for softer alloys — and clamp the bit firmly in the drill chuck. Apply steady, moderate pressure and allow the bit to cut without excessive force; use cutting fluid when drilling thicker or harder metals to improve cooling and chip removal. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips and prevent clogging. Replace bits from the set as needed when wear reduces cutting quality.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a center punch to start the hole and maintain stable clamping of the workpiece. Select drill speeds appropriate to the metal being worked and apply cutting fluid for improved tool life. Store the bits in a dry place to avoid corrosion and keep spare pieces from the set available for uninterrupted work.
