TOTEM HSS STUB STEEL BIT 4MM (FBR0200343)

The Totem HSS Stub Series 4mm Drill Bit (FBR0200343) is a high-precision, compact tool from Forbes Precision Tools (Totem), engineered for accurate, shallow-depth drilling in metals, alloys, plastics, and wood. Its stub-length design provides superior rigidity, minimal deflection, and enhanced control—ideal for hand-held drilling, tight spaces, or machine use where stability is critical. Fully ground from premium High-Speed Steel (HSS), it delivers excellent heat resistance, edge retention, and durability under high RPMs. Compliant with DIN 1897 and featuring a 118° split point, it starts instantly without center punching, ensuring clean, burr-free holes.

Key Features:

• Stub-Length Construction: Short overall length (~39 mm) and flute (~22 mm) for maximum strength and reduced breakage risk.
• Fully Ground HSS Body: High torsional strength; maintains sharpness longer than carbon steel.
• 118° Split Point Tip: Self-centering, no walking—perfect for sheet metal or curved surfaces.
• Parallel Shank: 4 mm cylindrical shank fits securely in standard chucks or collets.
• Black Oxide Finish: Lowers friction, resists corrosion, and improves chip evacuation.
• Efficient Chip Flow: Spiral flutes clear debris fast, reducing heat and clogging.

Ideal For:

• Metal Fabrication: Mild steel, aluminum, brass, stainless (with cutting oil)
• Automotive & Sheet Metal: Mounting holes in panels, brackets, or enclosures
• DIY & Repair: Precision work in appliances, furniture, or electronics
• Not for deep holes – use jobber bits for depths >4x diameter

Users rate it 4.8/5 for sharpness, durability, and zero drift—excellent for progressive drilling (e.g., after 3.3mm or before 4.5mm).
