Metallics HSD24 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole does the Metallics HSD24 twist drill bit make?
The HSD24 is a 7/16 inch diameter high-speed twist drill, so it cuts a nominal 7/16 inch hole. Overall length is 5-1/2 inches, which gives enough reach to get through stacked steel studs, panel sides, or a junction box run where a jobber-length bit comes up short. It ships 5 bits to a pouch.
2) How many bits come in a pack of Metallics HSD24 drills?
Five bits per pouch, all the same 7/16 inch size. That is a consumable pack rather than a single bit, which is how electrical crews usually buy them, one pouch to a gang box so a burned bit gets swapped on the spot instead of stopping the run.
3) Is the Metallics HSD24 a bit for metal or for wood?
It is a high-speed steel twist drill, the general-purpose geometry used for metal, and it is sold as an electrical supply item, which is where 7/16 inch holes get drilled for strut, hanger rod, and box mounting. It will cut wood, but for larger wood or stud boring an auger or self-feed bit is the faster tool.
4) Can I use the HSD24 7/16 bit to drill for 3/8 inch threaded rod?
Yes, that is a common use. A 7/16 inch hole gives clearance for 3/8-16 threaded rod or a 3/8 inch anchor bolt without binding, which is why 7/16 shows up constantly on overhead hanger and strut work. For a hole the rod threads into, you would be tapping instead and need a smaller tap drill.
