Strike Twist Drills

Strike brand has always characterised high quality twist drills, offered in a range that gets increasingly more complete.
All our twist drills are milled and ground from the solid, and undergo a severe quality control in order to guarantee that they are always up to our customers' expectations.

HSS twist drills are made with AISI M2 steel, and are available in many versions: Straight Shank (art. 57), Reduced Shank (art. 57R), Straight Shank Long Series (art. 59L), Straight Shank Stub Series (art. 59E), Morse Cone (art. 59C), Straight Shank Double Ended (art. 59D). Furthermore, twist drills that undergo special treatments are available:

TIN (art. 57T): a Titanium Nitride coating improves hardness and smoothness, making it easier to drill steels.

PLUS (art. 58): a special HD (Hard Coated) coating process increases the hardness of the twist drills (64-65 HRC) and improves the smoothness..

Twist drills with a special sharpening to drill Aluminium (art. 59A) are also available.

CO Twist Drills (art.88) are made with high speed 8% Cobalt AISI M42 steel. This kind of cobalt steel guarantees excellent performances even when drilling the most resistant steels.
