Multi - Step drill bits offer the easiest and quickest way to cut or enlarge holes in materials like sheet metal, stainless steel, and other materials up to 1/8” thick. These drill bits have 2 wide flutes that prevent chip build - up and chatter. They are built to last longer. The self - centering point makes drilling more accurate. With a special titanium coating, they have increased wear resistance. Available in different step configurations such as 13 steps from 1/8' to 1/2', 12 steps from 3/16' to 7/8', 9 steps from 1/4' to 3/4', and 10 steps from 1/4' to 1 - 3/8', with various shank sizes (1/4' and 3/8'). Minimum package quantity is 1 for all options.
Using these multi - step drill bits is easy. First, select the right drill bit based on the hole size you need and the material you're working with. Make sure your drill is set to an appropriate speed. Place the self - centering point on the spot where you want to drill. Start drilling slowly and steadily. As you drill, the wide flutes will help remove chips and reduce chatter. When you're done, clean the drill bit with a soft brush to remove any debris. Store the drill bit in a dry place to prevent rust. Avoid using the drill bit on materials thicker than 1/8” as it may cause damage to the bit. Also, don't force the drill bit too hard as it can affect its performance and lifespan.
