Types of Drill Bit
The best-known drill bits are named twist drill bits after
their appearance and shape. A distinction is made between
HSS (High Speed Steel) drill bits and masonry bits. HSS
drill bits of type W (soft) are used for soft materials
such as wood, plastic, aluminium, steel and other hard
materials, are worked on with HSS drill bits of type N
(normal) or H (hard). Masonry bits have a tungsten-carbide
plate on their tips and are used for impact drilling.
For special tasks, there are many other drill bit
types. Core cutters or hole saws are used to drill large
holes as of a diameter of 25 mm. Step drill bits cut
recesses for recessed head screws while drilling. Tile
drill bits are used for drilling smooth and brittle
materials. You will find the appropriate bits for your
BOSCH Cordless Screwdriver at power tool dealers or in DIY
superstores. |
