Description
Overview:
The 4.5mm Red Hex HSS-G Titanium Drill Bit is a precision metalworking bit from Milwaukee, supplied as a genuine part (OEM No. 48894710). It is manufactured from High-Speed Steel Ground (HSS-G) for accuracy and durability, and finished with a titanium nitride coating to reduce friction and wear. The Red Hex shank provides a firm hold in compatible chucks and quick-change bit holders, helping to prevent slippage under load. Designed for reliable drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals and suitable plastics, it performs well on site and in the workshop. With a 4.5 mm diameter (0.177 inches), it is suited to pilot and clearance holes for small fixings. Ideal for use in cordless and corded drill drivers and compatible power tools.
