Bosch 2608585595 Drill Bit HSS-G 16mm 4pcs

The Bosch HSS-G drill bit is a heavy-duty option designed for efficient and precise drilling in various metals. This description details the features and functionalities of a set containing four 16mm diameter drill bits.

Dimensions:

• Diameter (D): 16mm (This determines the final hole size you’ll create after drilling.)
• Usable Length (L1): Information about the usable length (drilling depth) is typically not specified for Bosch HSS-G drill bits. However, it’s likely shorter than the overall length due to the shank that fits into the drill.
• Overall Length (L2): While not always provided, the overall length may be available from retailer specifications.

Material:

• Cutting Edge: This is likely crafted from high-speed steel (HSS) with a special cobalt alloy (HSS-G). Cobalt increases the hardness and heat resistance of the steel, allowing for faster drilling speeds and extended lifespan, especially when drilling tougher metals.

Features:

• HSS-G Material: As mentioned earlier, the HSS-G composition provides superior performance in metal drilling compared to standard HSS bits.
• Precision Ground Shank: The precisely ground shank ensures a wobble-free fit within the drill chuck, enhancing drilling accuracy and reducing vibrations.
• Split Point Tip: The 135-degree split point tip helps center the bit and initiate drilling without the need for a pilot hole (depending on material and application). This point geometry also promotes clean and accurate hole formation.
• 4-Flute Design (Possible): Some variations of Bosch HSS-G drill bits may have a 4-flute design. Compared to a 2-flute design, this can offer:
  • Faster dust removal, which can improve drilling speed and cooling.
  • Potentially smoother drilling performance due to a more balanced cutting action.
• Bosch Reputation: Bosch is a reputable brand known for producing high-quality power tool accessories. You can expect reliable performance and durability from these Bosch HSS-G drill bits.

Applications:

This Bosch HSS-G drill bit set is ideal for various metal drilling tasks, including:

• Drilling holes in thick mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals.
• Creating holes for large fasteners, pipes, electrical conduit, and other applications requiring a 16mm diameter.
• General metal drilling tasks around the workshop or for professional applications.
