Norseman Drill & Tool Wire Gauge Sizes Type 100 Twist Drill Bit
Precision and Versatility for Everyday Drilling Applications
The Norseman Drill & Tool Wire Gauge Sizes Type 100 Twist Drill Bit is engineered for accuracy, smooth performance, and long-lasting reliability in general-purpose drilling. Proudly made in the USA, this versatile bit is a must-have for machinists, fabricators, maintenance technicians, electricians, and hobbyists who rely on precision and consistency in their work.
Designed for Clean, Accurate Drilling
Constructed from premium high-speed steel (HSS), the Type 100 delivers exceptional toughness, edge retention, and cutting efficiency. Recommended for non-ferrous metals, wood, and plastics, it excels in drilling aluminum, brass, copper, composites, PVC, and other softer materials. Its sharp cutting edges produce smooth, burr-free holes, providing excellent control in both hand-held and stationary drills.
The 118° standard point geometry ensures easy starts, reduced walking, and precise hole placement—ideal for detailed or delicate work requiring accuracy. This versatile point style supports smooth penetration and consistent cutting action across light-duty to moderate drilling applications.
Engineered for Efficiency and Longevity
A bright finish improves chip evacuation, reduces friction, and limits heat buildup, resulting in cooler cutting and extended tool life. Each bit is precision-ground to tight tolerances, ensuring concentricity, balanced performance, and uniform hole sizing.
Because it is available in wire gauge sizes, the Type 100 offers fine incremental diameter options that are essential for electrical work, precision assemblies, and specialty manufacturing tasks where exact sizing is critical.
