Frequently Asked Questions

What makes cobalt drill bits different from standard HSS bits?

Cobalt drill bits, typically made from M35 cobalt alloy, contain 5% cobalt blended into the steel, giving them higher heat resistance and hardness than standard high-speed steel (HSS) bits. This allows them to maintain a sharp edge longer when drilling tough materials like stainless steel, cast iron, and other hard alloys, especially at higher speeds without excessive cooling.
