What This Product Is and How It Works
The TOTAL Drill Bits 19‑Piece Set TACSD0195 is a metric twist drill bit assortment made from high‑speed steel (HSS). Each bit is spiral‑fluted to remove chips efficiently and to maintain cutting action as it creates holes through materials such as mild steel, aluminium, timber, and plastics. Twist drill bits operate by rotating at appropriate speed while applying steady feed, allowing the cutting lips to shear material cleanly.
The set spans a sequence of sizes that enable users to select the proper diameter for pilot holes, clearance holes, and general fabrication work.
Material Quality, Durability and Environmental Performance
High‑speed steel construction provides toughness and heat resistance, allowing these drill bits to withstand the frictional heat generated during drilling operations. HSS maintains hardness at elevated temperatures better than carbon steel, which improves tool life and reliability in demanding conditions.
In typical Kenyan workshop and site environments—dust exposure and temperature variation—these bits perform consistently when used with correct drilling speeds and feed technique, providing a balance of strength and wear resistance.
Installation, Handling and Compatibility
Insert the chosen bit fully into a standard keyed or keyless chuck on compatible electric, cordless, or bench drills. Secure the bit before drilling and ensure the drill speed is appropriate for the material type. For metal drilling, centre‑punch the start point to prevent bit wander. Use cutting fluid on metals to reduce heat and extend bit life. Wood and plastics generally require higher speeds, but controlled feed helps achieve smooth holes.
Always wear eye protection and appropriate personal protective equipment when operating power tools.
Typical Applications in Kenya
This 19‑piece set is widely used for general workshop fabrication, maintenance, and construction tasks. Typical applications include drilling pilot holes for screws and fasteners in timber and metal, creating clearance holes in sheet materials, and general purpose hole formation in maintenance, furniture, and fabrication work.
It is commonly selected by fundis, carpenters, metalworkers, technicians, and DIY homeowners. For more drilling accessories, browse the full range in our Shop or explore the Power Tool Accessories Category.
