Proposition 65 notice
This product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for a chemical known to cause cancer and a chemical known to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Users should follow shop safety practices, wear appropriate PPE and ensure adequate ventilation during operation.
Build and shank implications
The straight shank fits standard drill chucks and collets without a specialised holder, allowing quick changes on drill presses or hand drills. Rigid construction resists deflection at the small diameter, while the Twister GP 5X geometry promotes chip evacuation and hole accuracy in production or repair environments.

Questions about this item
Which diameter should I pick from the Twister GP 5X range?
The 2.30 mm size is the only diameter listed for this drill, so choose it when that exact hole size is required.
What does the 5X label mean when I put the bit in my drill press?
It indicates a flute length roughly five times the 2.30 mm diameter, giving deeper drilling capacity before the chips must be cleared.
How does the straight shank affect compatibility with my chuck?
The straight shank fits any standard three-jaw chuck or collet that accepts a 2.30 mm round shank, with no special taper or drive flats needed.
