Why Choose Our Carbide Drill Bits for Steel?
JINOO’s D2300-Series Carbide Drill Bits for Steel have excellent features to demonstrate their outstanding cutting performance.

Fine-Grain Carbide Substrate
Our drill bits for steel are manufactured from high-purity tungsten carbide with 0.4 μm grain structures.

Oerlikon AITiN Nano Coating
JINOO’s carbide drill bits for steel feature AITiN nano coatings with even thickness and heat resistance.

140° Point Angle Design
Our drill bits for steel are designed with a 140° point angle, which features a precisely ground point design.

Cutting Edge Preparation
Micro-honed cutting edges of drill bits for steel are achieved with controlled edge preparation.

Optimized Flute Geometry
Our carbide drill bits for steel feature polished flutes with precision-ground profiles and internal surface finishes.

Reinforced Web Core
Carbide drill bits for steel are engineered with a reinforced core that features higher thickness and a cross-sectional geometry with high stability.
Drill Bits for Steel Geometry Breakdown
1.Fine-Grain Carbide Substrate for Longer Tool Life
Our Carbide Drill Bits for Steel can last longer with the use of 0.4 μm fine-grain carbide substrates, which balance the hardness and fracture toughness.
2.AITiN Nano Coating for Higher Heat Resistance
Combined with durable coatings, carbide drill bits for steel can maintain high stability under extremely high temperatures of nearly 1000°C.
3.140° Split Point Design for Stable Positioning
The 140° split point design evenly distributes cutting forces with minimal drill walking and improved positioning stability.
4.Cutting Edge Preparation for Minimal Micro-Chipping
Honed cutting edges with a uniform edge radius can balance strength and sharpness of the cutting lip, decreasing stress concentration with less edge chipping.
5.Polished Flutes for Efficient Chip Flow
Mirror-polished flutes can deliver less tool friction with 60% increased machining efficiency.
6.Reinforced Web Core for Higher Rigidity
The reinforced core with higher core thickness can improve torsional stiffness and bending resistance, minimizing the tool deflection.
7.30° Helix Angle for Superior Chip Control
The 30° helix angle promotes the chip evacuation and delivers higher tool rigidity.
8.Optimized Chisel Edge for Less Thrust Force
The shortened chisel edge reduces the center area to improve centering accuracy and decrease thrust forces.
9.Balanced Relief Angle for Less Friction
The balanced relief angle can greatly reduce the tool friction while maintaining edge strength and heat generation to maintain the hole consistency.

FAQ about Carbide Drill Bits for Steel
Do you provide customised Carbide Drill Bit for Steel services?
Of course! JINOO is willing to provide you with versatile customized options depending on the parameters of the Carbide Drill Bit for Steel. Please contact our professional sales team for more details.
How long does delivery usually take for JINOO’s Carbide Drill Bit for Steel?
If you want to buy the standard ones in stock, the delivery time will typically be within 3-5 business days, while the delivery time of a customised Carbide Drill Bit for Steel should be finalised according to your tool parameters.
Which payment methods does JINOO accept?
There are various payment methods for you to choose from, including T/T, credit card payments and other payment methods. You can contact our sales team with your requirements.
To meet the various demands of our clients, JINOO has offered you carbide drill bits for steel with a full range of parameters that you can choose from.
Our D2300-Series Carbide Drill Bits for Steel offer 3xD, 5xD, 8xD, and 12xD with cutting diameters ranging from 3mm to 20mm. 8xD and 12xD carbide drill bits for steel can be combined with internal coolant channels. Moreover, we have also set both internal coolant and external coolant channels available for 3xD and 5xD to ensure machining efficiency with significant heat dissipation capacity.
We have also applied the AITiN Nano-layer coating to increase wear resistance and extend the lifespan of these carbide drills.
When using D2300-series drill bits to machine deep holes, internal coolant drills can not only prevent them from entanglement and clogging, but also quickly reduce the tip temperature and thermal wear.
For shallow holes, when the machine tool is equipped with a high-pressure external coolant device, external coolant drills are easier to produce due to their simplified structure at a lower cost.
For short-hole machining with small batches and frequent tool changes, an external coolant tool can ensure sufficient chip removal and production flexibility.
Common mistakes in drilling hardened steel include using drill bits unsuitable for hardened steel, using excessive spindle speeds, and applying insufficient coolants. You should avoid applying excessive feed pressure and use solid carbide drill bits for drilling harder materials instead of high-speed steel drill bits. Otherwise, these common mistakes will result in overheating, premature tool wear, and tool breakage.
We recommend you use solid carbide drill bits for hardened steel to achieve optimal machining results. Combined with proper cutting speeds, stable feed rates, and cutting fluid, superior hole accuracy and extended tool life can be achieved as well.
Although HSS drill bits are more affordable for drilling soft metals, solid carbide drill bits are superior for high-speed drilling for steel with higher hardness, improved heat resistance, and extended tool life.
Solid carbide cutting tools can achieve three to five times higher cutting speeds than HSS tools. Moreover, they can deliver high-precision hole drilling even under hardened steel machining. As a result, HSS drills are cheaper for light machining, while carbide twist drills are more suitable for machining steel parts with stable drilling performance and wear resistance.
