Cobalt drill bit 8.0x117 mm for stainless steel DIN 338 RT-HSSC-080

Professional steel drilling – reliable cobalt drill bit Rawlplug

This drill bit is a solid choice for both professionals and demanding users. Made of high-quality high-speed steel HSS M35 with a 5% cobalt additive, it provides exceptional durability and resistance to high temperatures, which is crucial when working with difficult materials. It will perform where standard drill bits fail.

Design and application

The Rawlplug RT-HSSC-080 drill bit with a diameter of 8 mm and a length of 117 mm is designed for efficient drilling in stainless steel, high-strength steels, profiles and steel sheets. The SPLIT POINT 135° tip geometry ensures precise centering and minimizes the need for high pressure during drilling. The ground spiral effectively removes chips, preventing overheating of the tool and ensuring a clean hole. Compliance with DIN 338 standard guarantees dimensional repeatability and high quality of workmanship.

Advantages for professionals and home users

• Durability and lifespan: The 5% cobalt additive significantly increases resistance to abrasion and oxidation, which translates into a longer drill bit life, even with intensive use.
• Versatility: Ideal for working with stainless steel, tool steel and other high-hardness materials.
• Precision: SPLIT POINT 135° geometry makes it easier to start drilling and maintain a stable path, minimizing the risk of damage to the workpiece.
• Efficient chip removal: The ground spiral ensures smooth chip removal, preventing overheating of the drill bit and improving hole quality.
• Compliance with standards: Meeting the DIN 338 standard guarantees dimensional accuracy and tool reliability.
• Universality: Suitable for both professional applications (workshops, services) and amateur applications (renovation work, DIY).

Remember to select the appropriate drill speed for the type of material being processed and to use cooling when drilling metals – this will further extend the tool's life and improve the quality of work.
