Consider, taking into account what characteristics you can choose high-quality metal drills.

For the operation of the drill in household work, it is important to take into account all the features of the materials. So, for steel or aluminum, it is important to build on the value of the goods. The cheapest will be Chinese drills. They break down quickly and become dull. To drill for a long time, you need to stock up on them in considerable quantities.

When looking for good drills for metal, it is advisable to pay attention not only to the material from which they are created, but also to their color. Consider what the different colors of these devices indicate.

• The gray ones. The specified color has the cheapest borax, which cannot boast of high quality. They are made without any treatments that make them stronger and stronger. In addition, gray products are often subject to combustion, since they are not protected by anything from it.
• Black. Black nozzles are often on sale. These are specimens that have been treated with superheated steam. They are reliable, durable and usually have an affordable cost.
• With a pale golden hue. Products made of hardened steel, subjected to additional treatments during the production process, have a similar color. Practical, robust. They are often chosen by professional masters.
• With a bright gold finish. This color is distinguished by expensive high quality borax.

Another important criterion in choosing the optimal drill. Marking represents a specific combination of letters and numbers indicating the following products:

• on the indicators of the diameter of the drill;
• the level of hardness of steel;
• presence of metal impurities;
• place of production.

Consider the existing markings.

• HSS-R, HSS-G. Options that are allowed to buy in order to interact with alloys of different types of steel, with a degree of strength up to 900 H / sq. mm.
• HSS-G Co5. It is possible to use metal bases with a strength index up to 1110 N / mm for work. sq. Such options can be used in relation to stainless steel, carbon, alloyed heat-resistant and non-heat-resistant steel.
• HSS-GTiAN / TiN. The indicated marking is affixed to the nozzles with an additional coating (titanium-nitride-aluminum). They will be able to drill cast iron, bronze, cast steel.
