Step Drill Bit Step Drill Bit - Drill Holes Of Multiple Sizes Without Changing The Bits
Step drill bit is considered to be the most effective bit to work with. This bit has the same shape like that of a cone and is comprised of various multiple sizes or steps, all this is available in a single package. As far as the sizes are concerned, these step bits are available anywhere between 2 to 13 different bit sizes that can measure between 1/32” to 1/2” inch, or 4mm to 12mm. They are easy to use and have an efficient hole making impact on metals and hard articles. One can easily push the drill in to the required metal to be drilled and can push the bit until the desired hole has been crafted out. One of the major advantages of a step bit is that it is 6 times longer lasting than a conventional or standard bit. They can be used on metals, steel and other metal related objects; however they are not supposed to be used on wood. There is a major difference between conventional and step drills that is, if one wants to drill multiple holes in steel sheets through standard bits they will have to change it over and over again, but with step drill bit you don’t have to change bits to and from, but one has to use a drill bit with step increments that are thicker than the metal to be bypassed.
A step drill bit has a limitation that can’t be effectively used on thin materials. They are faster, sharper and durable coupled with cutting sharp ends to drill perfect holes. Step drills are versatile in nature as they have the tendency to drill through many versatile metals. Moreover, they can also be used as countersink screws and fasteners to be drilled below the surface. This bit can be used in more than one way, like for drilling metals, thick metals, drilling screws and fasteners, counter boring and other uses. Step drill bit is also used with metal fabricators for extra power, reliability and durability. They are far better than a conventional drill bit in more than one way like; unlike conventional step bits are sharper, better and reliable; step bits do not need to be changed over while drilling multiple sized holes and they are much thicker than a conventional drill which allows to dissipate heat.
The tip of the step drill bit is made of hard aluminum alloy which provides the bit with a sharp end that can penetrate the metal sheets easily. The whole body is made of high graded steel and alloy that makes it resistant to breakage and enhances strength. A step drill bit is used in many industries like for instance in home improvement, construction work and also many automobile body shops that use these step bits in automobile restoration processes. They can also drill holes in exterior body of trim. One most prominent advantage of this step drill bit is that it can be used to drill multiple holes of varied sizes without changing the drill bit. They are available in titanium, copper and silver variations for better strength and long life.
