Metallics HSST6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the Metallics HSST6 drill bit?
It's a 9/64 inch bit, titanium coated, in jobber length. Order it by model number HSST6.
2) Is a jobber length bit like the 9/64 inch HSST6 long enough for drilling through electrical box knockouts and strut?
Jobber length is the standard general purpose flute length, so the 9/64 inch HSST6 handles typical electrical work like drilling sheet metal boxes, strut, and panel enclosures. For deep holes through framing or thick stock you want an aircraft length or extended bit instead.
3) Will the 9/64 inch HSST6 bit drill the pilot hole for a #8 sheet metal screw?
Yes. 9/64 inch is the common pilot size for a #8 sheet metal or self tapping screw in light gauge steel, which is the size range this bit is sold into for electrical work.
4) What does the titanium coating on this 9/64 inch jobber bit do for me?
The titanium nitride coating on the HSST6 reduces friction and heat at the cutting edge, which is why electricians use coated bits on steel boxes, strut, and enclosures rather than bare high speed steel. It is a surface coating, so edge life drops once the bit is resharpened past it.
