MAKITA D-59916 HSS-G Black Oxide Metal Drill Bit 1/16" x 1-7/8" (2 pcs)

MAKITA D-59916 HSS-G Black Oxide Metal Drill Bit 1/16x1-7/8" (2 pcs)
Specifications
- Model D-59916 is a fine-sized drill bit in Makita's Imperial HSS-G Black Oxide line, engineered specifically for metal applications requiring the smallest hole sizes.

HSS-G (High-Speed Steel
- Ground: Made from high-quality HSS and fully ground along the flute, resulting in precise cutting edges and consistent geometry for smoother drilling and longer service life compared to roll-forged HSS drill bits.
Black Oxide Coating: The black oxide treatment plays an essential role in resisting rust and corrosion, especially for small drill bits that can easily break if rusted. It also helps reduce friction, lowering heat buildup during drilling. 135° Split Point: The 135-degree split point tip enables immediate self-centering without the need for a center punch, which is crucial for small drill bits.               
Features
135° Split Point: Provides fast, highly accurate hole starts even on flat or curved surfaces without wandering.
Fully Ground HSS-G: Fully ground flute manufacturing quality provides exceptional cutting sharpness and highly efficient chip removal.
Black Oxide Finish: Resists rust and helps the drill bit withstand high temperatures caused by friction during metal drilling.
Wear Resistance: Made from HSS-G material, giving the drill bit a longer lifespan than standard HSS bits.
