Tork Craft Precision-Max Step Point Drill — 5.5 mm HSS (10-Pack)
Optimize productivity with this 10-bit set of 5.5 mm HSS step-point drills. The combined benefits of self-centering tip geometry and clean cutting entry help reduce walk and burr formation, making this pack ideal for high-volume use in steel, aluminium, plastics and sheet metal applications.
Features
- 5.5 mm diameter — common pilot hole or fastening size.
- Step-point geometry — reduces walking and improves start accuracy.
- Split point design — helps with clean entry and lower thrust force.
- Straight shank — compatible with standard 3-jaw chucks.
- M2 HSS construction — durable, general-purpose drill steel.
- Fully ground flutes — for smooth chip clearance and reduced friction.
- Packed in 10 bits — ensures backup stock and continuous workflow.
Benefits
- Reliable starts: step-point geometry helps minimize wander and improve hole entry.
- Consistency: uniform bits support predictable performance and reduce variation between drills.
- Minimized downtime: extra bits in the pack keep operations running without stoppage.
- Versatile use: suits a range of materials including metals, plastics, laminates and composites.
Extra Information
- Use cutting fluid or coolant when drilling metal to extend life and improve edge finish.
- Start at moderate RPM and feed; avoid pushing hard on the bit.
- Support thin materials with backing stock to avoid exit burr or break-through.
- Alternate usage among bits to distribute wear evenly across the pack.
Pro Tip
- Use peck drilling (withdraw periodically) especially in deeper holes to clear chips and reduce heat buildup.
- Reverse slightly before exit in laminated materials to reduce splintering or chipping on exit side.
