Metallics NHSD9E – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics NHSD9E long enough to drill through a stud bay or double top plate for running cable?
At 9 inches overall with 3-5/8 inches of cutting flute, the NHSD9E will clear a nominal 2x4 plate and get you through standard framing lumber, with the extra shank length keeping the chuck off the surface. If you need to bore a doubled top plate or stacked lumber deeper than 3-5/8 inches, the flute length is the limit, not the overall length, so step up to a longer-flute bit or an auger for that.
2) What size is the Metallics NHSD9E high-speed twist drill bit?
The NHSD9E is a 9 inch overall high-speed twist drill bit with a 3-5/8 inch flute length, finished in black oxide. It ships one piece per pouch, so a single bit is what you get per unit.
3) Can I use the Metallics NHSD9E in a standard cordless drill?
Yes. The NHSD9E is a straight-shank high-speed twist bit, so it chucks into a conventional keyless or keyed drill chuck. It is not a hex or SDS shank, so it is not an impact-driver or rotary-hammer bit.
4) What is the black oxide finish on a high-speed steel drill bit actually for?
Black oxide on the NHSD9E is a surface treatment that reduces friction and helps resist corrosion in storage and on the truck. It is a general-purpose finish for steel, aluminum, wood and plastic work. It is not a substitute for cobalt or carbide when you are drilling hardened or stainless material.
5) Does the Metallics NHSD9E come as a single bit or in a set?
One bit per unit, supplied in a pouch. If you are stocking a van or a job box and want multiple diameters, you order each size separately rather than buying a cased set.
