Metallics HSDAC32 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole does a #32 aircraft drill bit make?
A #32 wire gauge bit like the Metallics HSDAC32 drills a nominal 0.116 inch hole, which is the standard size for a 1/8 inch pop rivet. Wire gauge numbering runs opposite to fractional sizing, so the higher the number the smaller the bit.
2) Why choose a 6 inch aircraft extension bit instead of a standard jobber drill bit?
Reach. The Metallics HSDAC32 is a 6 inch aircraft-length bit, so it drills through studs, joist bays, and behind boxes or panels where a jobber-length bit bottoms out on the chuck. For open bench work or thin sheet, a shorter jobber bit is stiffer and wanders less. Electricians typically keep the aircraft length for fishing and blind-hole work.
3) What does the 135 degree split point on this Metallics bit actually do for me?
The 135 degree split point on the HSDAC32 self-centers, so it bites where you put it without a center punch and without skating across metal. A standard 118 degree point needs punching or a pilot dimple. That is the practical difference on steel studs, strut, and enclosure sheet metal.
4) Will a high speed steel bit like this drill through steel studs and electrical enclosures?
Yes. The HSDAC32 is high speed steel, which cuts mild steel, aluminum, brass, and wood. Run it slow with cutting oil in steel. For hardened material, stainless at depth, or masonry, HSS is the wrong tool and you want a cobalt or carbide-tipped bit instead.
5) How many drill bits come in the Metallics HSDAC32 package?
One bit per package, supplied in a pouch. If you are stocking a van or a shop crib and want spares on hand, order the quantity of pouches you need rather than expecting a multi-pack.
6) What is the exact part number to order this Metallics aircraft drill bit?
Order Metallics part number HSDAC32. That covers the heavy duty 135 degree split point aircraft high speed drill bit, #32 size, 6 inches long, one piece.
