Metallics HSSC5E – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the Metallics HSSC5E cobalt drill bit, and how long is it?
The HSSC5E is a 1/8 inch diameter cobalt jobber bit with a 2-3/4 inch overall length. Straight shank, 135 degree split point, yellow finish, sold as a single piece in a pouch.
2) Will a 1/8 inch cobalt bit drill through steel strut and enclosure panels?
Yes. Cobalt tooling is meant for harder materials than plain HSS, and the 135 degree split point starts on its own without a center punch, so it won't walk on a painted panel or on strut. Use it at low RPM with cutting oil, and keep steady pressure, cobalt chips if you let the bit chatter. Diameter is 1/8 inch, which is the usual pilot for self-tapping screws and small anchors.
3) How many bits come in the Metallics HSSC5E pack?
One bit per pouch. If you're stocking a van or a shop drawer and you go through 1/8 inch bits on sheet metal, order multiple pieces rather than expecting an assortment, this is a single-size, single-piece item.
4) Is the HSSC5E a jobber length bit or a longer aircraft-style bit?
At 2-3/4 inches overall on a 1/8 inch diameter, the HSSC5E is standard jobber length. That's the length that fits any keyless chuck and most right-angle drills. If you need to reach through a deep stud bay or past an obstruction, a jobber bit won't get there, look for an extension-length or aircraft-length 1/8 inch bit instead.
