Norseman Drill & Tool Wire Sizes Type 240-F Twist Drill Bit
Precision for Every Project and Every Material
The Norseman Drill & Tool Wire Sizes Type 240-F Twist Drill Bit is engineered for professionals who demand precision, durability, and consistent performance across a wide range of materials. Proudly made in the USA, this high-speed steel (HSS) bit delivers exceptional toughness and heat resistance, making it ideal for drilling metal, wood, plastics, and other low-tensile materials.
Designed for Exact Wire Gauge Sizing
Wire gauge drill bits offer finer size increments than fractional or metric bits, making them essential for precision-critical applications such as electrical work, mechanical assembly, prototyping, engineering, and specialty fabrication. When accurate hole dimensions matter, the Type 240-F provides the control and consistency professionals rely on.
High Helix Engineering for Superior Chip Removal
The Type 240-F features a fast spiral (high helix) flute design that enhances chip evacuation and reduces friction, especially in softer metals like aluminum, copper, brass, and zinc. This design improves drilling efficiency, maintains cooler operating temperatures, and produces clean, smooth hole finishes—even in deep-hole drilling situations.
Clean, Accurate Starts with a 135° Split Point
A 135° split point ensures fast, walk-free starts, eliminating the need for pilot holes and reducing thrust pressure. This results in quicker penetration, greater accuracy, and better control on curved or hard surfaces.
Built for Long-Lasting Performance
With its black and gold oxide finish, the Type 240-F offers improved lubricity, enhanced wear resistance, and optimal chip flow. Precision-ground flutes and tight manufacturing tolerances reduce vibration and extend tool life—hallmarks of Norseman’s reputation for excellence.
