Drill Bits

Drill Bits for Hobby, Model Making & Precision Craft Work:

This drill bits collection is strongly focused on miniature and precision drilling rather than general construction drill bits. The range includes Excel Blades micro drill bits in individual fine sizes, assorted micro drill bit sets, pin vises with drill bits, a precision manual hand drill set and specialist screw extractor sets supplied with matching drill bits.

Micro Drill Bits for Detailed Work:

Micro drill bits make up the majority of the collection, with a particularly wide selection of very small diameters. Individual sizes extend from approximately 0.343mm through to 1.778mm, with many supplied as packs of 12 matching HSS drill bits. Assorted sets provide another option when a project requires several hole sizes rather than repeated drilling at one diameter.

Excel Blades HSS micro drills are designed for detailed work across materials represented in the range including wood, resin, beads, PVC, acrylic and other plastics. Their small diameters make them particularly relevant to model making, jewellery work, crafts and other precision projects where standard drill bits are too large.

Pin Vises & Mini Hand Drill Sets:

For manual drilling, the collection includes pin vise sets and an Artesania Latina precision mini hand drill supplied with seven HSS drill bits. Its included sizes run from 0.4mm to 1mm, making it specifically suited to modelling kits and craft work requiring controlled, small-diameter holes.

There are also assorted Excel micro drill sets, including 12-piece and 20-piece selections covering multiple numbered drill sizes.

Screw Extractor Sets with Drill Bits:

Alongside the hobby tools, the collection includes screw extractor sets supplied with drill bits. These are a distinct part of the range intended for removing damaged or broken fasteners rather than precision craft drilling.

Choosing the Right Drill Bit:

For micro drilling, choose the diameter according to the exact hole size required and check compatibility with your pin vise or drill holder. A pack of one size suits repetitive work, while assorted drill bit sets are more practical for modelling and craft projects requiring multiple diameters. For manual precision work, consider a pin vise or mini hand drill rather than a powered drill.
