The **IRWIN HSS TCT Tip Drill Bit** delivers precise and efficient drilling in hardened steel, cast iron, bronze alloys, and manganese alloyed steel. Its **Tungsten Carbide Tipped (TCT)** design ensures superior performance, with the **C2 Carbide Tip** capable of drilling materials up to **50 Rockwell C hardness**. The tip is **four-facetted ground**, reducing drilling pressure and ensuring perfect centring for clean, accurate holes.
The **Chrome Vanadium Steel** body is hardened to **56 Rockwell C**, enhancing durability and resistance to wear. For optimal performance and longevity, Irwin recommends using a **3-6% coolant emulsion** during drilling, which helps extend the drill bit’s lifespan.
