DRILL BIT HSS STANDARD 5.0MM HEX SHANK 1/CARD
Features
- 5.0 mm cutting diameter — common size for many clearance and mounting holes.
- Hex shank enables secure and fast bit swaps in quick-change systems.
- HSS construction ensures durability, sharpness and cutting precision.
- Twist/flute design for efficient chip removal and less clogging.
- Supplied singly on retail card (1 per pack).
Benefits
- Efficiency: hex shank lets you change bits quickly on the job.
- Accuracy: good for clean starts in various materials, especially with smaller diameter bits.
- Multi-role: suitable for metal, plastic or timber depending on speed and feed settings.
Extra Information
- Use adequate speed—moderate for metals, faster for plastics/wood (avoid melting or chipping).
- Peck drill on deeper holes to clear chips regularly.
- Ensure workpiece is secured to minimize bit wandering or breakage.
Pro Tip
- For sheet metal, score the surface lightly to help the 5 mm bit engage cleanly without walking.
- Use scratch marks or guides on thicker materials to maintain direction and reduce drift.
