Description
Overview:
The Addax HSS Jobber Drill Bit 1/16" (1.59 mm) is a general‐purpose, precision metalworking bit made from M2 alloyed high‐speed steel. Built to DIN 338 jobber pattern, it offers a dependable balance of rigidity and reach for everyday drilling. It is suitable for use in handheld drills, cordless drill drivers, and bench or pillar drill presses. This small-diameter bit is designed for clean, accurate holes in alloy steel, cast iron, non‐ferrous metals, and plastics, making it useful for fine pilot holes, small fixings, and fabrication tasks where accuracy matters. The M2 HSS construction provides good wear and heat resistance under typical workshop conditions, supporting consistent performance for both trades and DIY users who need a reliable 1/16" (1.59 mm) twist drill for metal and mixed-material work.
