Milwaukee 48894717 SHOCKWAVE RED HEX HSS-G TiN Metal Drill Bit 7mm
Product Description
The Milwaukee 48894717 SHOCKWAVE RED HEX HSS-G TiN Metal Drill Bit 7mm is a professional impact-rated drilling accessory designed for accurate, efficient and reliable metal drilling. Manufactured from precision-ground high-speed steel (HSS-G), this durable drill bit features a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, Milwaukee's advanced QUAD EDGE cutting technology and a 1/4" hex shank optimised for compatible impact drivers.
Engineered with Milwaukee QUAD EDGE technology, the drill bit combines a 135° split point with four precision cutting edges. The split point provides a fast, accurate drilling start while helping prevent the bit from wandering across the workpiece. The four cutting edges produce smaller metal chips, helping minimise heat build-up and supporting improved cutting efficiency and longer drill bit life.
The Titanium Nitride coating helps dissipate heat generated during drilling, improving wear resistance and supporting high-speed cutting applications. Combined with precision-ground HSS-G construction, the Milwaukee 48894717 provides dependable performance for professional metal fabrication, electrical installation, engineering and maintenance work.
Featuring variable flute geometry, this 7mm metal drill bit is designed to remove metal swarf efficiently from the cutting area. Faster chip evacuation helps maintain cooler operating temperatures and reduces the risk of premature overheating. An enhanced tapered web reinforces the drill bit's core towards the shank, increasing flute strength and improving resistance to breakage during demanding drilling operations.
With a 7mm drilling diameter, 109mm overall length and 66mm working length, the Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE RED HEX drill bit is suitable for a variety of professional metal drilling applications. Its impact-rated 1/4" hex shank provides convenient compatibility with suitable impact drivers, making it a practical choice for electricians, engineers, metal fabricators and maintenance professionals.
