Metallics HSD27 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole does the Metallics HSD27 twist drill bit make?
The HSD27 is a 31/64 inch high-speed twist drill, so it cuts a 31/64 inch hole. That is the standard tap-size drill ahead of a 1/2-13 thread, and it is a common clearance pass for 1/2 inch hardware where a straight 1/2 inch bit would leave no room. Overall length is 5-7/8 inches.
2) How many bits come in a Metallics HSD27 pack, and how are they packaged?
Five bits per pack, supplied in a pouch rather than an index case or bulk box. That matters if you are stocking a van or a job box, since the pouch keeps the set together but will not protect the flutes the way a rigid index does.
3) Is the HSD27 long enough to drill through a stud or a double layer of material?
Overall length is 5-7/8 inches, which includes the shank held in the chuck, so usable cutting depth is less than that. It will clear a nominal 2x4 or 2x6 laid flat, but for drilling through doubled framing or deep box work you want a longer aircraft-length or extension bit instead.
4) Will the Metallics 31/64 drill cut steel, or is it only for wood?
It is a high-speed steel twist drill, which is the general-purpose grade electricians use in steel strut, enclosure sheet metal, aluminum, and wood alike. For masonry or concrete you need a carbide-tipped hammer bit, and for hardened or stainless work a cobalt bit holds its edge longer.
5) What is the Metallics part number for the 31/64 inch high-speed drill bit?
Order it as Metallics HSD27. That number covers the 31/64 inch, 5-7/8 inch high-speed twist drill in the 5-piece pouch, and it is the only configuration the HSD27 designation carries.
