Diablo Tools Metal Demon Twist Drill Bits combines the benefits of black oxide, titanium and cobalt bits into one bit designed for mild, hardened and stainless steel applications. |
This range combines benefits of three drill bit types—black oxide, titanium, and cobalt—into a single solution that delivers up to 30X longer life. With one bit, users can drill into mild, hardened and stainless steels, plus wood applications rather than having to switch out bits. The company says the bits are designed with features for extended bit-life and efficiency.
“Professional users have long demanded a single solution for metal drilling that’s efficient and long-lasting, and we answered the call,” said Russell Kohl, president and CEO of Diablo/Freud Tools. “We’re eliminating the guesswork with a one-size-dominates-all solution.”
He said these bits can break through any mild or stainless steel put in their way, offering unprecedented levels of ease, productivity, and versatility.
“Like other Diablo solutions, we’ve broken the threshold on efficiency yet again,” Kohl said. “The Metal Demon Twist Drill Bits can do it all.”
In today’s market, contractors choose between quality, functionality, and affordability. Most metal drill bits are designed to ‘grind’ when drilling through metal, creating a slow and low-quality hole. In addition, a choice must be made between black oxide, titanium or cobalt bits. Most buy multiples of all three styles to ensure they have the right bit.
Diablo’s Metal Demon drill bits are manufactured with high-speed steel and a coating that cuts rather than grinds and delivers precise, fast, clean holes. They combine the functionality of all three styles and last longer than the standard drill bits. Diablo says the longer lifespan of the bits result in savings of up to $230 per bit. resulting in a
The secret to the Metal Demon Drill Bits is Diablo’s design and combined with its proprietary Thermal Shield Protective Coating that creates a multi-layered protective barrier around the tip to shield against heat and maximize durability.
These new bits also offer a 130° Split Point Tip, which makes pre-drilling obsolete by maintaining exceptional sharpness and enabling extra-long bit life for portable and stationary drilling tools. Also, an Automated Precision CNC grinding process reduces bit wear while the bit’s aggressive and optimized flute design removes metal shavings faster.
