Norseman Drill & Tool Type 240-F Fast Spiral High Helix Twist Drill Bit
Precision-Engineered for Deep Hole Drilling in Soft and Low-Tensile Materials
The Norseman Drill & Tool Type 240-F Fast Spiral High Helix Twist Drill Bit is designed for exceptional performance when drilling soft, non-ferrous, and low-tensile strength materials. Proudly made in the USA, this premium high-speed steel (HSS) drill bit delivers superior chip evacuation, smooth cutting action, and long-lasting durability across a broad range of applications.
High Helix Geometry for Faster, Cleaner Drilling
Featuring an advanced fast spiral (high helix) design, the Type 240-F quickly removes chips from the cutting zone—reducing clogging, heat buildup, and friction during deep-hole drilling. This makes it ideal for materials that produce long, continuous chips such as aluminum, zinc, copper, wood, refrigeration die castings, auto hardware, and epoxy-based plastics. The improved chip flow ensures cleaner hole finishes and allows faster feed rates, boosting both efficiency and tool life.
Built for Strength, Stability & Precision
Manufactured from premium high-speed steel, this drill bit provides excellent hardness and wear resistance. It performs exceptionally well in free-machining steels, brass, and bronze, maintaining sharp edges and delivering consistent accuracy through repeated use. The 118° standard point ensures easy starts, reduced walking, and reliable cutting performance across hand-held drills and production machinery.
Enhanced Finish for Better Performance
The bright-finish surface improves lubricity, enhances chip evacuation, and minimizes material buildup—making drilling smoother and more controlled, even in soft or gummy materials.
