Built from M2 HSS with a black oxide finish, it bores 13 hole sizes ranging from 1\/8 inch up to 1\/2 inch in 1\/32-inch increments. The cylindrical quick-change shank measures 1\/4 inch in diameter, and the overall tool length is 2-5\/8 inches. A concave flute geometry channels chips away from the cutting zone, helping maintain clean entry and consistent step depth. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and plumbers reach for step bits when punching knockouts, conduit holes, or sheet-metal openings without swapping drill bits between sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SD6560619 fits general-purpose trade applications where sheet metal, thin steel, aluminum, plastic, or similar materials need multiple hole diameters in one session. Each step is 1\/8 inch long, giving the operator a clear stopping shoulder at every increment. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces friction during cutting. A single flat on the cylindrical shank prevents bit slippage in standard three-jaw and quick-change chucks. This bit is sold individually and is well suited for service vans and job boxes where compact tooling is a priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13 hole sizes from 1\/8 inch to 1\/2 inch in 1\/32-inch step increments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 high-speed steel construction for durability across general-purpose materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish for reduced friction and mild corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcave flute design promotes chip evacuation during drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch cylindrical quick-change shank with one flat for secure chuck grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact overall length of 2-5\/8 inches suits tight-access drilling situations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose step drill bit compatible with standard 3-jaw keyed and keyless drill chucks as well as quick-change chuck systems that accept 1\/4-inch cylindrical shanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eStep drill bits are typically used by licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and plumbers working with sheet metal, electrical enclosures, and thin-gauge panels. Always center-punch the work surface before drilling to prevent bit walking. Use appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece firmly before applying power. Keep drilling speed appropriate for the material being cut to preserve cutting edge life and step geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel (M2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HSTH-OX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Hole Sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep Increments\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-5\/8 inches (2.5967 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cylindrical Quick Change\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Concave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Multipurpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: SD6560619\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51967017484594,"sku":"SD6560619","price":50.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1387a1cbc85e69f037e155e448d18e22_b0710976-a755-41ec-948f-e6ca4596ba30.jpg?v=1789950774","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-sd6560619-step-drill-bit-13-step-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
