This M35 cobalt HSS step drill bit combines a spiral flute, 118° point and TiAlN coating for progressive hole drilling in sheet materials. Choose from 4–12 mm, 4–20 mm or 4–32 mm, supplied individually as one drill bit per purchase.
Key Features
-
M35 Cobalt HSS: Manufactured from M35 cobalt high-speed steel for improved hardness, wear resistance and cutting-edge durability.
-
TiAlN Coating: The industrial coating helps reduce wear and supports reliable performance during compatible metalworking operations.
-
Spiral-Flute Design: Helps reduce cutting resistance while supporting efficient chip removal and heat dissipation.
-
118° Drill Point: The X-shaped point geometry supports accurate positioning and helps reduce slipping at the start of drilling.
-
Secure 3-Flat Shank: Each variant has a size-specific three-flat shank for secure clamping in a compatible three-jaw drill chuck.

- Deburring and countersinking existing holes
- Drilling carbon steel, iron, aluminium and copper sheet
- Drilling thin stainless-steel and compatible plastic sheet
Tool Compatibility
- The 4–12 mm variant requires a three-jaw chuck capable of accepting a 6 mm shank.
- The 4–20 mm variant requires a three-jaw chuck capable of accepting an 8 mm shank.
- The 4–32 mm variant requires a three-jaw chuck capable of accepting a 10 mm shank.
- Suitable for compatible handheld electric drills, cordless drills and bench drills.
- A bench drill is recommended when machining metal workpieces between 2 mm and 5 mm thick.
Operating Guidance
- Select the spindle speed according to the active drilling diameter and workpiece material.
- Reduce the spindle speed progressively as the drilling diameter increases.
- Use suitable cutting fluid when drilling metal to reduce heat and cutting-edge wear.
- Secure the workpiece and ensure that the drill bit is firmly clamped before use.
- Do not use this step drill bit on concrete, ceramic tiles or glass.
