Tork Craft Precision-Max Step Point Drill — 5.0 mm HSS (1 Piece)

Drill precise, clean holes with this 5.0 mm high-speed steel bit. Its step-point geometry improves centering and reduces wandering on smooth surfaces or difficult materials. Ideal for drilling metals, plastics and composite sheet structures.

Extra Information

Apply cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling steel to improve finish and extend bit life.
Use moderate feed and speed — avoid forcing, which may deflect or break the bit.
Support thin materials with a backing board to avoid breakout at exit.
Remove chips in deeper holes by retracting the bit periodically (peck drilling).

Pro Tip

On stainless or hard metals, reduce RPM and use steady, minimal feed to avoid work hardening.
Rotate bit use if part of a multi-pack to manage bit wear and maintain consistent geometry.
When high precision is critical, instead of stepping up, drill slightly under and ream to final size.

Features

5.0 mm diameter — suitable for larger pilot holes or medium fasteners.
Step-point geometry — helps reduce walking and improves entry accuracy.
HSS material — balanced for durability and performance in general use.
Straight shank — for compatibility with standard 3-jaw chucks.
Fully ground flutes — for smoother chip evacuation and reduced friction.
Tip angle approximately 135° for clean penetration and controlled cutting.

Benefits

Reliable starts: Step-point tip helps maintain centering even on smooth or coated work surfaces.
Consistent finish: Reduced burrs and better edge quality in metal and plastic work.
Versatility: Suitable for mild steel, aluminium, plastics, laminates and composite sheet tasks.
Efficient drilling: Cleaner starts cut down rework and misaligned holes.

Safety

Wear eye protection — chips and fragments may be ejected during drilling.
Secure the workpiece firmly — avoid freehand drilling on small or thin parts.
Apply steady feed pressure; don’t twist or force the bit sideways.
Manage heat — use coolant, rest intervals or lower speeds when needed.
