You want to drill a hole in stainless steel but don't know which drill bit to use? In this blog we explain how you should drill in stainless steel and which ones you can use best.

There are different types of wood bits (brad point wood bit, auger wood bit, flat wood bit, countersink and hole saw). Which drill you can use best depends on the size of the hole you want to drill.

​

Phillips bit (PH) is one of the most commonly used screws and bits. A Phillips bit has a recess in the shape of a cross and is self-centering. This means that the screw will stay stuck on its own. 

​

Hole saw, also called hole saw cutter or hole drill  is ideal for sawing round holes in different types of materials. A hole saw can be used, for example, when recessed boxes or recessed spots need to be mounted in the ceiling.

Core drills are drills for metal that are mainly used in larger diameters (up from 12 mm). The biggest advantage of a core drill compared to a twist drill is that not all of the material needs to be cut. 

Rotary burrs are high-quality carbide deburring tools with cross-cutting for universal applications and they come in 13 shapes. You use rotary burrs to deburr, break edges, cut, process welds and surface treatment.

Standard metal drills are great for drilling in soft metals such as copper and aluminum. But for hard metals, such as stainless steel, it is better to use drills made from cobalt carbide. The HSS label indicates that the drill is made of a harder type of metal.

A jig saw is very useful to saw corners, circles and detailed irregular shapes.

A reciprocating saw is suitable when there's not a lot of elbow room, but for instance also used for pruning.

Masonry drill bits and concrete drill bits are solid drills that are suitable for drilling in various types of stone, such as brick, concrete and sand-lime brick. Our range consists of concrete drills with a cylindrical connection, SDS-plus connection and SDS-Max connection.

A step drill is used for drilling beautiful rounded holes in metal or plastic, drilling step by step. You can also drill and deburr with a step drill at the same time. 

Threadcutting is a method that is being used to create screw thread on and in metal products. This process cuts metal, which creates a spiral shaped furrow. This is the screw thread.
