This 10-pack of 2.5mm HSS drill bits is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and professional tradespeople requiring precision drilling with hand or pillar drills. Their high-speed steel construction and 118° point tip ensure durability and efficient, clog-free operation, making tasks smoother. A potential caveat is their specific 2.5mm size, which may not suit all drilling requirements, and users should ensure compatibility with their drill type before use.

These drill bits are made from High-Speed Steel (HSS) and are roll forged for enhanced durability.
The drill bit tip has a 118° point angle.
They are suitable for softer metals like aluminum and mild steel. For harder metals, specialized drill bits may be required, and appropriate techniques should be used.
They come with a high-density case for safe and organized storage, protecting the tips and preventing loss.
They are designed for use with standard hand drills and pillar drills that have compatible chucks.
DIN 338 is a German industrial standard that specifies dimensions and technical requirements for twist drill bits, ensuring quality and performance consistency.
Ensure you are using the correct drill speed and applying appropriate pressure. The bit's design promotes swarf clearance, but excessive drilling depth without retracting can still cause clogs.
Ensure the drill chuck is adequately tightened around the drill bit's shank. Check that the bit is fully inserted into the chuck.
Verify the drill bit is sharp and free from damage. Ensure you are using the correct drill speed for the material. Check for excessive drill press runout if using a pillar drill.
Reduce drilling speed, apply less pressure, and ensure efficient swarf clearance. For metal, consider using a lubricant or cutting fluid.
Setup: Insert the 2.5mm drill bit firmly into the chuck of your hand drill or pillar drill. Ensure the chuck is tightened securely around the bit's shank to prevent slippage during operation.
Compatibility: These drill bits are compatible with standard drill chucks found on most hand drills and pillar drills. The 2.5mm shank size is a common diameter, but always verify your drill's minimum and maximum chuck capacity.
Care: After use, clean any debris from the drill bit. Store the bits in their provided high-density case to protect the sharp tips and prevent corrosion. Avoid exposing the bits to excessive moisture. Periodically inspect the bits for any signs of wear or damage before use.
