Metallics NHSD33 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole does a number 33 drill bit make?
A number 33 wire-gauge drill cuts a 0.113 inch hole, which is the standard tap-size hole for a 6-32 machine screw thread. Electricians reach for it when drilling boxes, enclosures, plates, and straps for 6-32 hardware. If you need a clearance hole for a 6-32 screw instead of a threaded one, you want a larger gauge number such as a 27 or 28.
2) How many bits come in the Metallics NHSD33 twist drill pack?
The NHSD33 ships as a 10-piece pack of number 33 high-speed twist drills, supplied in a pouch. It's a consumable quantity meant for crews who break or dull small-diameter bits regularly, so one order covers a run of holes rather than a single drilling.
3) How long are the Metallics NHSD33 drill bits, and will they reach through a deep enclosure wall?
Overall length is 2-5/8 inches, which is a jobber-style length for a number 33 bit. That gives plenty of reach for sheet metal boxes, enclosure flanges, channel, and strut, but the usable flute depth is only a fraction of that overall figure, so it is not the bit for drilling deep through blocking or stacked timber.
4) Will these high-speed steel bits drill sheet metal enclosures and steel strut?
High-speed steel is the right tool steel for mild steel, sheet metal boxes, aluminum, and plastic, and that is what the NHSD33 is. For hardened stainless or stud-mounted work hardening, slow the speed and keep cutting oil on the bit. For concrete or masonry anchors you need a carbide-tipped masonry bit, not a high-speed twist drill.
5) What part number do I order for Metallics number 33 twist drills?
Order Metallics NHSD33. That part number covers the number 33 high-speed twist drill at 2-5/8 inches, sold 10 to a pouch. There is one configuration, so there is no separate length or finish to specify.
