Description
Adiseal Ultimate 7mm Metal Drill Bit M35 Cobalt (107mm): Fastest, Most Durable
The Adiseal Ultimate 7mm Bit is a professional-grade M35 Cobalt Steel drill bit. It utilizes a patented high-performance geometry to provide rapid penetration and extreme durability in hardened materials like SUS304 Stainless Steel. In tests, it drilled 135 holes, outperforming Bosch by 9x and DeWalt by 3x.
What is the best 7mm drill bit for hardened metal?
Adiseal Ultimate 7mm Cobalt Metal Drill Bit is engineered to be the fastest and most durable drill bit for metal. In endurance and speed tests drilling into hardened stainless steel (SUS304) without cutting fluid or lubricant, this patented bit outperformed top competitor brands by a staggering margin—drilling 9 times more holes than the best cobalt bit from Bosch and 3 times more than DeWalt’s best equivalent. Constructed from M35 High-Speed Steel (HSS-Co) with 5% Cobalt alloy, its patented design allows for faster penetration and reduced burr formation and superior chip evacuation in the toughest materials, including stainless steel, hardened steel, cast iron, and bronze. Designed for precision, its sharp cutting edge eliminates the need for pilot holes, preventing bit walking and saving significant time and labour costs on every job.

How do you drill hardened steel with the Adiseal 7mm Cobalt Bit?
How to Use the Adiseal Ultimate Metal Drill Bit
1. Mark and Center Punch
Although the Adiseal Ultimate features a self-centering tip, using a heavy-duty center punch is recommended for hardened steel. This ensures the 7mm bit engages exactly on your mark, preventing surface scratching or “walking.”
2. Secure the Workpiece
7mm bits can generate surprising torque when biting into tough alloys. Always secure your metal in a vice or use heavy-duty clamps. If using a handheld drill, ensure a firm two-handed grip to maintain a vertical drilling axis.
3. Set the Correct Speed (RPM)
Heat is the enemy of cobalt. For a 7mm M35 bit in stainless steel, set your drill to a speed of approximately 310 – 620 RPM. Excessive speeds will glaze the metal and dull the cutting edge, even on high-performance cobalt bits.
4. Apply Heavy, Constant Pressure
Cobalt bits must “bite” to stay cool. Apply steady, firm pressure so the bit constantly ejections metal chips (swarf). If the bit is merely spinning without cutting, it will create friction heat and work-harden the steel.
5. Use Cutting Fluid (Recommended but not required)
To maintain durability, apply cutting oil or paste throughout the process. This lubricates the M35 HSS-Co structure, reducing friction and preventing the bit from welding itself to the workpiece in deep holes.
6. Safety First
Always wear impact-resistant eye protection. The high-performance geometry of the Adiseal bit produces sharp, thick metal swarf that can be ejected at speed.

Pros & Cons of the Adiseal Ultimate 7mm Bit
- Pros: Outperforms Bosch by 9x and DeWalt by 3x; maintains sharp edge without lubricant; self-centering geometry prevents bit walking.
- Cons: Higher initial cost than standard HSS; requires strictly low RPM (310 – 620) for maximum longevity in stainless steel. Note: While the upfront cost is higher than basic HSS bits, the ultra-low cost-per-hole makes it the most economical choice over the course of any job.
