Milwaukee 1/16" RED HELIX Cobalt Drill Bit 48-89-2301
MAXIMUM HARD-METAL ENDURANCE
In the world of industrial maintenance and high-volume metal fabrication, bit failure isn't just an annoyance—it's a massive hit to your fleet's ROI. The Milwaukee RED HELIX™ Cobalt series is engineered specifically for these high-stress environments, utilizing a specialized Cobalt alloy that maintains its edge even under the extreme thermal loads generated by drilling stainless steel and cast iron. By integrating a variable helix geometry, this bit rapidly clears debris, preventing the heat-soak that typical black oxide bits succumb to in seconds.
- / Cobalt Alloy Formulation: Delivers up to 15X life compared to standard black oxide bits in high-tensile metal applications.
- / QUADEDGE TIP™: Four cutting edges designed to decrease heat build-up while increasing overall drilling speed.
- / 135° Split Point Tip: Enables a precision start without the need for center punching, preventing bit walk on smooth surfaces.
- / Enhanced Tapered Web: Dramatically strengthens the bit's core to resist torsional breakage during high-torque operation.
- / Variable Helix Design: Optimizes material extraction at a 35° angle, finishing at 15° to keep the bit cool and the workflow fast.
