Drill Bit, Twist

Product Details

Will the Twist Drill Bit HSS D1.5mm work on metal?

Yes. This bit is designed for metal drilling and is suitable for creating a hole diameter of 1.5 mm. If you are working with sheet metal or metal components, this is a practical choice for accurate small holes.

What size hole can I drill with Part No 001.41.015?

The product is specified for Hole Ø 1.5 mm. Using the correct drill bit diameter helps achieve a cleaner fit for pins, fixings, and components that require that exact measurement.

Is this drill bit compatible with standard twist drill setups?

Yes. As a twist drill bit, it is intended for use with typical drill chucks and drill drivers that accept the 1.5 mm shank size for metal drilling. It is well suited to normal drilling workflows where you need a precise small bore.

Which standard does the bit meet?

This bit is made to DIN 338. A recognised standard like DIN 338 helps ensure consistent manufacturing tolerances and performance for metal drilling applications.

Can I expect durability, and is there any warranty coverage?

Yes. The product comes with a Hafele Lifetime Guarantee of 25 years, giving you long term reassurance about the quality of the bit. It is an especially good option if you want reliable performance for frequent workshop use.

Why choose HSS for drilling into metal?

HSS stands for high speed steel, which is commonly used for metal drilling because it offers good wear resistance and heat tolerance. This helps the bit maintain cutting performance when drilling into suitable metal materials.

How can I get a cleaner hole when drilling small diameters like 1.5 mm?

For best results, use appropriate speed for metal and avoid excessive pressure. Starting with a steady alignment helps prevent wandering, and clearing swarf during drilling improves cutting efficiency, which is particularly important at 1.5 mm diameter.
