Product Overview
The DEWALT DT20531-QZ 10.5mm Black Gold HSS Drill Bit is engineered for enhanced performance and longevity across a spectrum of materials. This drill bit, featuring a high-speed steel (HSS) composition and a distinctive black and gold coating, is designed to deliver reliable and consistent drilling capabilities in applications involving wood, plastics, and various metal types. Its construction is optimised for stress reduction and superior material extraction, making it an essential component for power tool operators seeking efficiency and durability in their drilling tasks.
Part No: DT20531-QZ(DT20531)
Features & Benefits
- Black and Gold Coating: The dual-colour finish provides a significant layer of protection against corrosion and wear, contributing to a prolonged tool life and maintaining cutting efficiency.
- 135° Split Point Tip: This precision tip design ensures immediate material engagement, effectively eliminating the need for pre-punching or pilot holes and greatly reducing the tendency for the bit to 'walk' or drift upon initial contact.
- Tapered Web Design: The structurally reinforced tapered web enhances the drill bit's resistance to breakage, particularly when subjected to high lateral forces or during demanding, deep-hole drilling operations, leading to extreme durability.
- 3-Flats Shank: Incorporating a three-flat shank design, this feature provides a secure grip within the power tool's chuck, preventing slippage or 'spin-out' during high-torque applications.
- HSS (High-Speed Steel) Material: Manufactured from robust HSS, the bit is capable of maintaining a sharp cutting edge even at the high temperatures generated during drilling hard materials.

FAQs
There are two key considerations when choosing Metal Drill Bits; how wide do you need the hole you’re drilling to be and how deep should it be?
Once you know those two things, you can select a drill bit to suit; use the diameter and working length to inform your choice.
Before making your purchase, just double-check that the bit you’re thinking of buying is compatible with your tool; some manufacturers promise universal compatibility, while others don’t.
