Broca helicoidal RUKO SPB-DIN338-TypUNI-HSSCo-5.50 HSS-Co 5,5 mm DIN 338

Drilling into tough, high-alloy materials demands a bit that stays sharp and resists heat. The RUKO SPB-DIN338-TypUNI-HSSCo-5.50 is a 5.5 mm twist drill bit made from high-speed steel with 5% cobalt (HSS-Co), engineered for reliable performance in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and plastics.

Who is it for

This drill bit is ideal for metalworkers, machinists, and serious DIYers who frequently drill into hard steels and alloys. Its cobalt alloy and split point make it a dependable choice for precision work in demanding materials.
