Festool HSS D3-10 CE/10 CENTROTEC HSS Metal Drill Bit Set

At a Glance: Ten-piece HSS metal drill bit set from 3–10mm with CENTROTEC holders, replaceable twist drill bits and a clearly organised storage case.

Drill accurate holes in steel and non-ferrous metals with the Festool HSS D3-10 CE/10 Drill Bit Set. The set contains ten commonly used drill diameters from 3–10mm, each mounted in a CENTROTEC-compatible holder for rapid tool changes with compatible Festool cordless drills and cordless percussion drills. The High-Speed Steel twist drill bits are designed for professional metalworking, furniture assembly, kitchen fitting and general installation work. When a drill bit becomes worn or damaged, it can be removed from its holder using the supplied hex key and replaced without discarding the complete CENTROTEC holder. All ten drill bits are arranged clearly in a compact drill bit case, allowing the required diameter to be identified quickly while keeping the accessories protected during transport and storage.

Fast CENTROTEC tool changes with replaceable HSS drill bits

The CENTROTEC interface allows the complete drill bit and holder assembly to be exchanged quickly without opening and closing a conventional drill chuck. The actual HSS twist drill bit is replaceable, helping extend the service life of the set and reducing unnecessary accessory replacement.

Product Highlights

  • Ten useful drill sizes: Includes diameters from 3–10mm for common metal-drilling applications.
  • CENTROTEC compatibility: Allows rapid, tool-free accessory changes in the Festool WH-CE CENTROTEC tool chuck.
  • High-Speed Steel construction: Suitable for drilling steel and non-ferrous metals.
  • Replaceable twist drill bits: Worn drill bits can be exchanged using the supplied hex key.
  • Reduced replacement cost: The reusable CENTROTEC holders do not need to be discarded when the cutting bit wears out.
  • Clearly organised case: Keeps every diameter visible, protected and easy to select.
  • Professional installation set: Well suited to furniture assembly, kitchen fitting and general site work.
  • Compact transport: The case keeps all ten drills and the hex key together in one convenient set.

Extra Information

  • The set contains ten HSS metal drill bits and one hex key, giving a total of eleven individual articles.
  • Included drill diameters are 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 8 and 10mm.
  • The drill bits are suitable for machining steel and non-ferrous metals.
  • Each twist drill bit is mounted in a CENTROTEC-compatible holder.
  • The cutting drill can be replaced in its holder using the supplied hex key.
  • The set is intended for compatible Festool cordless drills and cordless percussion drills with FastFix tool reception and a WH-CE CENTROTEC tool chuck.
  • The WH-CE CENTROTEC tool chuck, cordless drill, battery pack and charger are not included.
  • Drilling performance depends on the material, selected speed, feed pressure, lubrication and condition of the drill bit.

Pro Tips

  • Mark the drilling position with a centre punch to help prevent the drill bit from wandering on smooth metal surfaces.
  • Use a lower rotational speed for larger drill diameters and harder materials.
  • Apply a suitable cutting lubricant when drilling steel to reduce heat and extend drill-bit life.
  • Begin with a smaller pilot hole when drilling larger diameters into thick material.
  • Maintain steady pressure, but do not force the bit if cutting progress slows.
  • Clear swarf regularly when drilling deep holes to prevent overheating and jamming.
  • Secure thin sheet metal firmly and support it from beneath to reduce grabbing as the drill breaks through.
  • Replace or sharpen a blunt drill bit when excessive heat, squealing or increased feed pressure becomes noticeable.
  • Return every drill to its marked position after use so missing or damaged sizes can be identified immediately.

How to Use

  • Select the required drill diameter according to the intended hole size.
  • Inspect the drill bit and CENTROTEC holder for wear, looseness or damage.
  • Install a compatible WH-CE CENTROTEC tool chuck on the Festool cordless drill.
  • Insert the complete CENTROTEC drill assembly until it locks securely.
  • Mark the drilling position and secure the workpiece firmly.
  • Select the appropriate gear and rotational speed for the drill diameter and material.
  • Apply suitable cutting lubricant where required for the metal being drilled.
  • Position the drill bit perpendicular to the workpiece and begin at a controlled speed.
  • Apply steady feed pressure while allowing the cutting edges to remove the material.
  • Withdraw the drill periodically during deeper holes to clear swarf and reduce heat.
  • Reduce feed pressure as the drill approaches the far side of the material.
  • Release the trigger and allow the bit to stop completely before removing it from the hole.
  • Remove the drill assembly from the CENTROTEC chuck before inspecting or replacing the cutting bit.
  • To replace a worn bit, loosen its retaining screw with the supplied hex key, fit the correct replacement and secure it firmly.
  • Clean the drill bit and return it to the storage case after use.

  • Replaceable drill construction: Each metal drill bit is secured in its holder and can be changed when required.

Safety

  • Wear suitable eye protection to protect against metal swarf and broken cutting fragments.
  • Wear hearing protection where required by the machine and working environment.
  • Secure the workpiece firmly with suitable clamps before drilling.
  • Do not hold small metal components by hand while drilling.
  • Check the drilling area for hidden cables, pipes and other hazards.
  • Remove the battery pack before installing, removing or replacing drill bits and accessories.
  • Confirm that the CENTROTEC drill assembly is locked securely into the tool chuck.
  • Do not use blunt, bent, cracked, loose or otherwise damaged drill bits.

  • Use a suitable cutting lubricant only where appropriate and keep it away from electrical components.
  • Be prepared for the drill bit to grab as it breaks through thin sheet metal.
  • Do not touch the drill bit, swarf or workpiece immediately after drilling, as they may be extremely hot.
