RUKO DIN 338 punta elicoidale HSS-G affilatura a croce 8,7 mm

Drilling precise holes in tough materials like alloyed steel or cast iron demands a bit that stays sharp, centers accurately, and resists walking. The RUKO DIN 338 HSS-G split point twist drill bit meets that challenge with a 135° split point that bites instantly and a ground-from-solid high-speed steel body that holds its edge.

Who is it for

This bit is built for metalworkers, maintenance technicians, and serious DIYers who need reliable, repeatable holes in steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and plastics. Its cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks, and the h8 tolerance ensures a consistent diameter for precision work.

Main features

• Split point (Kreuzanschliff) with 135° angle for self-centering and reduced thrust
• Ground from solid HSS-G for high hardness and wear resistance

• Right-hand cutting, bright finish
• Suitable for alloyed and unalloyed steel up to 900 N/mm², cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and plastics

Tips

Use a cutting fluid when drilling steel to extend bit life and improve hole quality. For deep holes, withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips. The split point minimizes center punching, but a light punch can still help on hard surfaces.
