FAQs

What materials can these drill bits be used on?

These drill bits are designed for drilling into various materials including metal, wood, and plastics. Their HSS-G construction and split point tip make them versatile for general-purpose drilling.

Can I use these with a hammer drill?

Yes, the 1/4-inch hex shank is designed to withstand the radial torque of percussion hammers, making them compatible with hammer drills.

What does the 'BLACK&GOLD' coating do?

The specialized black and gold coating enhances the drill bit's resistance to rust and wear, contributing to a longer service life and maintaining performance over time.

What is the advantage of the 135° split point tip?

The 135° split point tip is designed to reduce bit walking or wandering when starting a hole, allowing for more precise placement and easier starting, especially on smooth or hard surfaces.

How do I maintain these drill bits?

To maintain the drill bits, clean off debris after each use and store them in a dry location to prevent rust. Inspect the tip regularly for signs of wear.

What is the shank type and size?

These drill bits feature a 1/4-inch hex shank, which provides a secure grip and is suitable for use in impact drivers and standard drill chucks.

Troubleshooting

Drill bit is not gripping securely in the chuck.

Ensure you are using a drill or impact driver compatible with a 1/4-inch hex shank. Check that the chuck is clean and properly tightened around the shank.

Drill bit is wandering on material surface.

Ensure the 135° split point is making firm contact. For harder materials, consider drilling a pilot divot or using a center punch to create a starting point.

Drill bit shows signs of excessive wear or breakage.

Verify you are using the correct drill speed and pressure for the material. Ensure the bit is suitable for the material being drilled. Check for any obstructions in the material. Overheating can also cause premature wear; use appropriate cooling if necessary.

Rust appears on the drill bit.

Although the black and gold coating offers rust resistance, prolonged exposure to moisture can still cause rust. Clean the bit and store it in a dry environment. Light rust can often be removed with a wire brush.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability and resistance to breakage.
  • Rust and wear protection from the black and gold coating.
  • Precise starting with reduced bit walking.
  • Secure grip suitable for high-torque applications.
  • Designed for extended tool life.

Cons

  • Specific 7.5mm size may not suit all applications.
  • Primarily designed for rotary drilling, though percussion hammer compatibility is noted.
  • Requires compatible drill or impact driver with a 1/4in hex chuck.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Insert the 1/4-inch hex shank of the drill bit firmly into a compatible drill or impact driver chuck. Ensure the chuck is tightened securely to prevent slippage.

Compatibility: These drill bits are designed for use with most standard power drills and impact drivers that accept a 1/4-inch hex shank. They are suitable for rotary drilling and can withstand the radial torque of percussion hammers.

Care: After use, clean any debris from the bit. Store the drill bits in a dry place to prevent rust, utilizing their protective coating as an aid. Avoid exposing them to excessive moisture. Periodically inspect the bit tip for wear and ensure it remains sharp for optimal performance.
