Key Features

• Premium M-2 High-Speed Steel Construction: Crafted from M-2 high-speed steel, this drill bit offers excellent wear resistance, heat resistance, and strength, ensuring extended tool life and consistent performance under continuous professional use. M-2 HSS is a common and versatile material for drill bits, known for its balance of hardness, wear resistance, and toughness, suitable for drilling common metals such as aluminum, copper, and steel. It retains its cutting edge longer than other general-purpose high-speed steels due to its increased quantity of tungsten.
• Exact No. 4 Wire Gauge Sizing: Designed to create highly precise hole diameters, the No. 4 wire gauge is ideal for pre-drilling accurate pilot holes essential for subsequent tapping operations and fastener installation. Wire gauge drill bits are used when more precisely sized holes are required.
• Versatile 118-Degree Point Angle: The standard 118-degree point facilitates effective material penetration and promotes self-centering, making it suitable for drilling a variety of materials including metals, wood, and plastics commonly found in industrial and automotive settings.
• Jobber Length Design: This design strikes a balance between reach and rigidity, offering enhanced stability during drilling while providing sufficient clearance for diverse professional tasks.

Applications

This No. 4 wire gauge drill bit is an indispensable tool for professionals requiring precise hole dimensions.
