Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can this cobalt drill bit cut?

Our cobalt drill bits handle stainless steel, cast iron, hardened steel, alloy steels, aluminum, copper, and more.

What speed should I use when drilling metal?

Use our Speeds & Feeds Calculator to set the correct RPM. Running too fast will overheat the bit; slower speeds preserve sharpness.

Can cobalt drill bits be resharpened?

Yes — cobalt drill bits can be resharpened, giving you long-term value.

How is cobalt different from standard HSS?

Cobalt (M35, 5%) withstands higher heat and stays sharper longer, making it ideal for harder metals compared to standard high-speed steel.

Do I need cutting paste when drilling metal?

We recommend TTP CUT-IT cutting paste for smoother drilling, cooler operation, and longer tool life.

3.5mm Drill Bit for Metal – Precision Hole-Making for M4 Clearance

The 3.5mm drill bit for metal is great for M4 clearance holes. Durable cobalt steel and a split point give fast, accurate results in any metal.


Extra Clearance for M4 Bolts

The 3.5mm drill bit for metal is the go-to size when an M4 bolt needs just a bit more clearance. It’s often used in fabrication, HVAC installations, and control panels where fasteners need smooth fitment. This size helps avoid binding and ensures bolts pass cleanly through multiple layers.

Moreover, its slightly larger profile gives added flexibility without compromising strength or control. It’s perfect for through-holes or non-threaded fastener mounting.


Built for Strength and Consistency

Made from M35 cobalt, this bit handles heat better than standard high-speed steel. The 135° split point makes for clean entries without skidding. Even when you’re drilling angled surfaces or curved pipes, it starts clean and stays straight.

This 3.5mm cobalt drill bit can cut through:

  • Stainless steel, including 304 and 316

  • Cast iron, copper, and brass

  • Mild and hardened steels

  • Structural alloy panels

  • Fiberglass and rigid plastic


Use Cutting Paste for Smooth Results

To protect your drill bit and improve cut quality, use TTP CUT-IT metal cutting paste. The lubricant reduces friction and extends tool life, especially useful when working on stainless or hardened steels.
