Metallics NHSD26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What hole diameter does a number 26 wire gauge drill bit make?
A #26 wire gauge drill cuts 0.147 inches, which sits between 9/64 (0.1406) and 5/32 (0.1562). Electricians commonly reach for that size as the tap drill for an 8-32 thread. The Metallics NHSD26 is that size in a 3 inch high-speed steel twist drill.
2) How many drill bits come in the Metallics NHSD26 pack?
Ten bits per pack, supplied in a pouch rather than an index or case. Each one is a high-speed steel twist drill in wire gauge size 26, 3 inches long. The pouch format is meant for restocking a bit roll or a van drawer, so if you want a hard case you'll need to transfer them.
3) Will a #26 high-speed steel twist drill cut through steel strut and enclosure sheet metal?
Yes. High-speed steel is the standard general-purpose drill material for mild steel, aluminum, and sheet metal such as channel, strut, and panel enclosures, which is why the NHSD26 is catalogued as an electrical trade bit. For hardened stainless or masonry you want cobalt or carbide-tipped instead, not plain HSS.
4) What is the Metallics part number for the size 26 3 inch high-speed drill?
NHSD26 is the Metallics manufacturer part number, sold as a 10 piece pouch of size 26 high-speed twist drills, 3 inches long.
