Metallics HSD1E – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the Metallics HSD1E twist drill bit and how long is it?
The HSD1E is a 1/16 inch diameter high-speed twist drill bit with an overall length of 1-7/8 inches. It ships as a single bit in a pouch, so if you're drilling a lot of pilot holes and expect to snap a few, order multiples.
2) Is the Metallics HSD1E bit coated or plain steel?
Bright finish, meaning uncoated high-speed steel with no black oxide or titanium coating. Bright HSS cuts cleanly in mild steel, aluminum, brass, and plastics; for heavy repetitive drilling in harder steel a coated bit holds an edge longer.
3) How many bits come in the Metallics HSD1E?
One. Each HSD1E is a single 1/16 inch bit supplied in a pouch, not a multi-pack or an index set. For a truck stock you'd order the quantity you want individually.
4) What do electricians use a 1/16 inch twist drill bit for?
On electrical work a 1/16 inch bit is a pilot-hole and small-fastener bit: starting holes for sheet metal screws in panel enclosures and device boxes, drilling thin steel strut and brackets, and opening up small holes in plastic covers. It is not a bit for conduit knockouts or box openings, which need a step bit or hole saw.
