With a 5/8" shank and a total length of 6", plus a 3" flute working length, this bit is designed for controlled, precise holes in metal, including steel and aluminum. The rounded shank ensures smooth fitting into most drill chucks or rotary hammers, making quick swaps between tasks easier. A plastic storage case is included to keep your bit protected and ready for the next project. This bit is suited to a variety of metal drilling tasks, offering dependable performance when you need a steady hand and a clean hole.

Coating, geometry, and drill performance

The bit is coated with M35 cobalt combined with a TiAIN finish, a blend that supports edge retention and oxidation resistance under demanding use. The 135-degree split point helps the bit start cleanly in tougher materials and minimizes wandering, providing more accurate entry especially when drilling into harder metals. You may notice steadier starts and crisper holes when working with hardened steels or stainless steel, especially at the right speeds and feeds.

Durability, storage, and support

In addition to the coating, the cobalt/TiAIN construction contributes to overall wear resistance and extended tool life for repeated drilling sessions. The 6" total length, 3" working length, and 5/8" diameter work together to balance reach, rigidity, and hole quality. A plastic storage case keeps the bit protected between jobs, helping you stay organized on busy workbenches.
