Description
Overview:
The Addax HSS Jobber Drill is a straight‐shank twist drill for general metalworking and maintenance tasks. Made from M2 high‐speed steel to DIN 338 standards, it offers a reliable balance of strength, toughness, and edge retention. With a 4.5 mm diameter and 80 mm overall length, it is suitable for accurate pilot and clearance holes in common workshop materials. Use it with cordless and corded hand drills, drill drivers, drill presses, or pillar drills fitted with a standard three‐jaw chuck. The jobber length gives good rigidity while still reaching through typical sections. Designed to cut cleanly in alloy steels, cast iron, non‐ferrous metals, and plastics, this Addax bit is a practical choice for tradespeople, site work, and home projects where consistent, predictable results matter.
Key Features:
- M2 high‐speed steel construction for dependable wear resistance and heat tolerance
- Manufactured to DIN 338 for consistent jobber length, straight shank, and dependable sizing
- 4.5 mm diameter for precise drilling in a wide range of materials
- 80 mm overall length for a good balance of reach and stiffness
- Suitable for alloy steel, cast iron, non‐ferrous metals (e.g. aluminium, brass), and plastics
- Straight shank for secure grip in standard three‐jaw chucks on cordless or mains drills
- Smooth, accurate cutting to help reduce wandering and produce tidy holes
- Versatile for site, workshop, and DIY use with predictable performance across common drilling tasks
Typical Applications:
Everyday drilling in fabrication, fitting, and repair jobs; pilot or clearance holes in steel sections, sheet metal, brackets, and fixtures; maintenance tasks on plant, vehicles, and machinery; light production work in aluminium or brass; and clean drilling in plastics for housings, panels, and fixings. Works well on hand‐held drills and on drill presses when accuracy and repeatability are required.
