Itm 255h12 Metal Drill Bit 3/16 X 3-1/2 in Impact

Product Description

The ITM 255h12 is an industrial-grade metal drill bit sized at 3/16 inches in diameter and 3-1/2 inches in overall length, engineered for use with impact drills in heavy-duty applications. This bit is built to withstand the rotational and percussive forces generated by impact drivers and heavy-duty drill/drivers, making it a practical choice for metalworking tasks on job sites. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general trade contractors reach for impact-rated metal bits when drilling through steel framing, brackets, electrical enclosures, and mechanical mounting surfaces.

The 255h12 is suited for heavy-duty metal drilling in both residential and commercial trade work. It performs in applications where standard twist bits fail under impact torque, including drilling through structural steel, steel studs, junction box knockouts, pipe hangers, and similar ferrous metal substrates. Its impact-ready shank is designed to seat securely in impact drill chucks and quick-release hex chuck systems commonly used in the field.

Key Features

• Impact-rated construction handles the high-torque output of impact drills without shank failure
• 3/16-inch diameter suits common pilot hole and fastener clearance requirements in metal
• 3-1/2-inch overall length provides reach for deeper drilling applications and tight-access work
• Industrial-grade build intended for heavy-duty, repeated use on metal substrates

Compatibility

Designed as an impact-rated metal drill bit compatible with standard hex-chuck impact drills and heavy-duty drill/drivers used in trade applications.

Installation Notes

Install this bit only in tools with a compatible hex or keyed chuck rated for impact use. Secure the workpiece before drilling and wear appropriate eye protection when drilling metal. Apply consistent, moderate pressure to maintain bit contact and avoid overheating the cutting tip. Follow applicable workplace safety standards when working with metal fabrication or drilling into energized or pressurized systems.
