Bosch 2608577218 HSS Metal Twist Drill Bit Set 5mm - 10 Pcs/Pack

It’s suitable for drilling stainless steel, steel, wood, and other common materials, providing versatile use across metalworking, woodworking, and plastic projects.

The 135° split point tip is self‑centering, which helps prevent walking when starting a hole and provides more accurate, concentric drilling, especially in metal.

It features a solid carbide tip that’s chemically hardened for extended sharpness, a titanium nitride (TiN) coating for improved cutting performance and longevity, and a conical shape that aids precision and a smooth finish.

It’s designed for use in a range of drills, including hammer drills, cordless drills, and drill presses, making it suitable for professional and DIY tasks.

Secure the workpiece, select the appropriate diameter, and start with a center punch if needed. Use moderate drilling speed (slower for metal) and apply cutting lubricant when drilling metal. Avoid excessive feed pressure, let the bit do the work, and periodically back out to clear chips to prevent overheating.

After use, clean off chips and debris, wipe the bit dry, and store it in its case or a dedicated drill‑bit organizer to prevent corrosion and keep the tip from dulling.

This product line is typically offered in multiple diameter options. Check the Fepy listing for available sizes and select the diameter you need for your project.

Compared with a standard HSS bit, the Pointteq version features a TiN coating for longer life and reduced wear, plus a carbide tip and self‑centering 135° split point for more precise starts and less walking, making it better suited for tougher materials and precision work.

Wear appropriate eye protection and gloves, secure the workpiece, ensure the drill is set to the correct speed for the material, use lubricant when drilling metal, avoid overheating, and maintain a firm, steady feed to prevent bit deflection or kickback.
