Rawlplug 6.5mm HSS Drill Bit with SPLIT POINT for Metal and Steel
Precision ground for clean, accurate holes:
This Rawlplug 6.5mm HSS drill bit features a ground spiral rather than a rolled one, producing tighter tolerances and a cleaner finish in the cut. The result is a more accurate hole with less deviation, which is particularly noticeable when working in harder metals such as structural steel and sheet profiles.
SPLIT POINT geometry for easy starting:
The SPLIT POINT double-sided geometry at the tip centres the bit on contact, eliminating the need for a centre punch on most applications. This reduces drilling pressure and the tendency for the bit to wander, making it easier to start holes accurately in flat or curved metal surfaces.
135° angle and HSS construction for hard materials:
A 135° point angle is better suited to hard steel than the 118° angle found on general-purpose bits, as it distributes cutting force more evenly across the tip. High Speed Steel (HSS) construction maintains hardness at the elevated temperatures generated when drilling steel, aluminium, and other non-ferrous metals.
DIN 338 standard for consistent sizing:
Manufactured to DIN 338, this bit meets a recognised international standard governing the dimensions and tolerances of jobber-length drill bits. That means the 6.5mm diameter is consistent from bit to bit, which matters when drilling to fit fasteners or fixings to a specific size.
