Much like their predecessors, the next generation of Red Helix Cobalt Drill Bits are designed with a Variable Helix that includes an aggressive 35° helix angle that varies along the flute, ending at 15° to limit heat build-up.

However, new to this next generation of the drill bits are two things: a Quad Edge Tip and Enhanced Tapered Web. The Quad Edge Tip decreases heat buildup and enables users to drill faster. A 135° split point tip delivers a precision start and prevents walking for fast, accurate holes in hard metal, PVC and wood. The drill bits’ Enhanced Tapered Web™ strengthens the core to increase overall flute durability.

The next generation of Milwaukee’s Red Helix Cobalt Drill Bits will be available in sizes ranging from 1/16” to ½”, as well as in sets. The drill bits will be available for purchase at select distributors in October 2019.
