Tork Craft Precision-Max Step Point Drill — 4.8 mm HSS (1 Piece)

Drill with confidence using this 4.8 mm High Speed Steel (HSS) precision bit. Its step-point tip helps guide the bit accurately at startup, minimizing walk and burrs. Ideal for mild steel, aluminium, plastics and thin sheet working.

Extra Information

  • Use cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to reduce wear and heat generation.
  • Use moderate RPMs and steady feed; avoid forcing the drill.
  • Support thin sheet with scrap or backing to prevent exit burr or cracking.
  • Withdraw bit periodically in deeper holes to clear chips and cool it down.

Pro Tip

  • For stainless or harder materials, reduce speed and keep pressure light to prevent work hardening.
  • Rotate usage among bits (if in a multi-pack) to equalize wear and maintain geometry over time.
  • Drill slightly undersize, then ream for high-precision holes when finish tolerance is critical.

Features

  • 4.8 mm diameter — suitable for mid-size fastener holes and precision work.
  • Step-point geometry — helps reduce wandering and improves centering.
  • High Speed Steel (HSS) — good balance of toughness and wear resistance for general workshop use.
  • Straight shank — compatible with standard 3-jaw chucks.
  • Fully ground flutes — for easier chip removal and reduced friction.
  • Tip angle (approx): ~135° — sharp entry with controlled cutting action.

Benefits

  • Better starts: step-point geometry plus self-centering design reduce start drift.
  • Cleaner holes: smoother edges and reduced burrs in metals and plastics.
  • Reliable performance: HSS body with balanced strength for general use.
  • Flexibility: works across a range of materials — metals, plastics, laminates.

Safety

  • Always wear eye protection — debris and chips may fly during drilling.
  • Secure the workpiece firmly — avoid holding small parts by hand during drilling.
  • Feed steadily; don’t force the bit into the material.
  • Monitor bit temperature; if hot, pause and allow cooling or use cutting fluid.
