Metallics HSD23E – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole does the Metallics HSD23E drill bit make?
The HSD23E cuts a 27/64 inch hole. That's the standard tap drill size for 1/2-13 UNC thread, so it's the bit electricians and mechanical contractors reach for when they're tapping a 1/2 inch coarse thread into steel channel, beam clips, or equipment frames. Overall length is 5-3/8 inches.
2) Is the Metallics HSD23E a high-speed steel bit or carbide?
High-speed steel, in a bright (uncoated) finish. HSS with a bright finish is intended for drilling mild steel, aluminum, brass, and wood with cutting fluid on the harder materials. It is not a masonry or concrete bit, and it isn't a hammer-drill bit, so for drilling anchor holes in slab or block you need a carbide-tipped SDS or masonry bit instead.
3) How many drill bits come in the Metallics HSD23E pack?
One bit per pack, supplied in a pouch. If you're stocking a van or a shop crib and want 27/64 on hand for 1/2-13 tapping, order the quantity you need, since each HSD23E is a single piece rather than a set.
4) What is the part number for a 27/64 inch Metallics drill bit?
Metallics catalogs the 27/64 inch, 5-3/8 inch long bright high-speed twist drill bit as HSD23E. That's the number to quote for a reorder or to hand a distributor.
