Metallics HSD16R – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the overall length of the Metallics HSD16R 5/16 inch drill bit?
Each bit in the HSD16R set measures 3-13/16 inches overall in the 5/16 inch diameter. That is a jobber-style length, so it clears a standard 1-1/2 inch stud or a steel box bracket with the chuck still off the work, but it is not long enough to drill through doubled plate or deep framing. For those runs you want an electrician's auger or a long-series bit instead.
2) How many drill bits come in the Metallics HSD16R 5/16 twist drill pack?
The HSD16R ships as a 5-piece pack of 5/16 inch high-speed twist drills, supplied in a pouch rather than a rigid case. If you need a single bit, note that the order unit is the full 5-pack.
3) Will a 5/16 inch high-speed twist drill go through steel electrical boxes and strut?
Yes. The HSD16R bits are high-speed steel twist drills, which is the standard bit material for drilling sheet steel, device boxes, strut, and enclosure walls as well as wood and plastic. Run them at a slower RPM with steady pressure in steel. For masonry or concrete anchors you need a carbide-tipped hammer bit, not this bit.
4) What model number do I order for the Metallics 5/16 inch high-speed drill 5-pack?
Order Metallics HSD16R. That part number covers the 5/16 inch, 3-13/16 inch high-speed twist drill supplied five to a pouch, and it is the only configuration the HSD16R number carries.
