                        Tork Craft Precision-Max Step Point Drill — 4.5 mm HSS (10-Piece Pack)
Engineered for consistent performance, this 10-bit pack of 4.5 mm HSS step-point drills offers reliability in steel, aluminium, plastics and sheet metals. The self-centering geometry helps improve entry accuracy and reduce walking even on smooth surfaces.
Features
- 4.5 mm diameter — fits common fastener pilot hole size.
 - Step-point tip — guides the drill to reduce wandering and improve entry alignment.
 - Split point design — helps with precise starts and cleaner edges.
 - Straight shank — works with standard 3-jaw chucks.
 - M2 HSS material — durable construction for general workshop tasks.
 - Fully ground flutes — enhance chip removal and reduce heat build-up.
 - Pack of 10 bits — keeps work going with spares in hand.
 
Benefits
- Reliable starts: Step-point and split point provide better centering and less walking.
 - Better consistency: All bits in pack maintain geometry for uniform hole quality.
 - Reduced downtime: Having backup bits ensures workflow continuity.
 - Versatile: Suitable for metals, plastics, laminates, and thin skin materials.
 
Extra Information
- Use cutting fluid when drilling metals to minimize friction, extend bit life, and improve finish.
 - Begin with moderate RPM and feed rates — avoid forcing the bit.
 - Support thin materials with backing to prevent exit burr or delamination.
 - Alternate uses among bits in the pack to balance wear and maintain peak geometry.
 
Pro Tip
- Use peck drilling (periodically withdraw bit) in deeper holes to clear chips and control heat.
 - Reverse direction slightly upon exit in layered materials to reduce peeling or chipping at exit side.
