These Cobalt Steel Twist Drills offer longer tool life than standard high speed steel, making them ideal for repeated drilling in both hard and soft metals. Harder and more wear-resistant than HSS, cobalt steel performs especially well in nickel-based white golds, stainless steels, and other tough alloys. Mounted on 3/32" (2.35 mm) shanks, they allow fast, convenient changes in fixed collet and quick change handpieces commonly used in jewelry work.

Notes
- Use appropriate speeds and lubrication when drilling harder alloys to maximize tool life.
- Because cobalt steel is harder and more brittle than HSS, apply steady pressure and avoid excessive side loading.
