Product Description
 
  • Wide Application Range

    These high-speed steel (HSS) step drill bits are engineered for versatility in drilling both metal and plastic materials. Ideal for sheet metals such as aluminum, brass, and mild steel, as well as various plastics like PVC and acrylic, these bits offer clean, burr-free drilling with multiple hole sizes in a single tool.

    Multi-Diameter Drilling with Deburring Capability

    Each bit features a step design that allows for drilling different hole sizes without the need to change bits. The precisely machined steps ensure smooth transitions between diameters, while the deburring function at each step provides clean, finished holes, reducing the need for secondary processing.

    Thermally Enhanced for Longevity

    Made from high-speed steel and subjected to advanced heat treatment, these step drill bits are built for extended durability. Their thermal resistance allows them to maintain sharpness and structural integrity even under high-speed and high-temperature drilling conditions common when working with metal.

Detailed Advantages

1. Razor-Sharp Cutting Edge
Crafted from high-speed steel (HSS), these step drill bits feature precision-ground cutting edges that ensure smooth, efficient penetration into metal sheets and plastic panels. The sharp edges reduce cutting resistance and minimize burr formation, delivering clean holes with minimal effort.

2. Self-Centering Split Point Tip
The anti-slip split point design enables accurate starting without the need for center punching. This ensures stable, walk-free drilling even on curved or hard metal surfaces, improving control and precision from the first contact.

3. Efficient Step-by-Step Chip Removal
Each step is engineered for optimal chip clearance, with a spiral flute design that efficiently removes metal and plastic shavings. This minimizes heat buildup and material clogging, promoting smoother drilling and extending tool life during continuous use.

4. Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Finish
These step drill bits are finished with a polished or coated surface (e.g., titanium coating, if applicable), enhancing resistance to rust and wear. This is especially valuable for professionals working in varying environments where moisture or exposure to lubricants is common.

5. Balanced, Multi-Stage Design
The stepped geometry ensures multiple hole sizes with one bit, reducing tool changes and improving efficiency. The design maintains balance and control during operation, making it ideal for electrical panels, automotive work, and fabrication tasks involving thin metals or plastics.

Advanced Manufacturing Capabilities for HSS Step Drill Bits

CNC Precision Grinding
Our HSS step drill bits are manufactured using CNC precision grinding to achieve uniform step heights, sharp cutting edges, and precise tip centering. This ensures clean, accurate drilling across various diameters in metal sheets and plastic panels, with reduced vibration and improved stability during high-speed operations.

Vacuum Heat Treatment
To maximize tool durability, each bit undergoes vacuum heat treatment, enhancing both surface hardness and core toughness. This process increases resistance to wear and heat-critical conditions when drilling through materials like stainless steel, aluminum, PVC, or ABS-ensuring extended service life.

Ultra-Fine Polishing
An ultra-fine polished surface reduces friction, improves chip evacuation, and minimizes heat generation during deep or repetitive drilling. This polishing treatment helps protect the drill bit and prevents surface damage to workpieces, especially when working with soft metals or thermoplastics.


Refined Metallurgy & Thermal Optimization

Advanced Steel Purification: EAF + LF + VD + RS ESR
Our step drill bits are crafted from ultra-clean high-speed steel using advanced metallurgical processes (Electric Arc Furnace, Ladle Refining, Vacuum Degassing, and Electro-Slag Remelting). This reduces impurities and enhances toughness and reliability, crucial for drilling hard metals or layered plastic composites.

Integrated Thermal Optimization
A combination of quenching, cryogenic treatment, and precision tempering pushes hardness up to HRC 67 while maintaining resistance to chipping and cracking. This results in optimal performance under high-speed and high-pressure drilling common in electrical, automotive, and fabrication industries.

RS ESR Edge Enhancement Technology
Refined through Rapid Solidification ESR processing, the cutting-edge structure is reinforced with uniformly distributed carbides and cobalt, improving edge retention and wear resistance. This ensures the step drill bit performs reliably in high-temperature, high-load drilling environments.

Customizable Engineering Options

Material Flexibility: M35-Centric Configuration
While M2 and M42 variants are available, we prioritize M35 HSS for its excellent hardness-to-toughness ratio, making it ideal for metal and plastic drilling where both edge strength and wear resistance are crucial.

Tailored Step Geometry & Coatings
We offer customizable step sizes, flute lengths, and helix angles to suit specific industrial needs. Optional PVD coatings like TiN, TiAlN, or TiCN further enhance thermal resistance, reduce friction, and ensure long tool life in demanding use cases.


Key Design Adaptations for Metal and Plastic Drilling

Multi-Step Flute Optimization

The flutes between each step are precisely designed for efficient chip removal and thermal control, reducing the risk of clogging when drilling thermoplastics or thin metal sheets. This keeps drilling smooth and consistent, even at higher RPMs.

Engineered Cutting Angles
The step transitions and tip geometry are finely tuned to reduce axial force, enhance stability, and prevent material deformation, which is especially useful when drilling soft metals or thin-walled plastic parts.

Performance-Enhancing Coatings
Our HSS step drill bits support application-specific coatings, such as TiAlN for high-temperature operations and TiCN for extreme wear environments. These coatings improve lifespan and enable reliable multi-diameter drilling, even under tough industrial conditions.
