As global demand surges for cost-effective threading in non-metallic materials, leading metric tap drill factories are adopting 4341 High-Speed Steel Combination Bits for PVC, acrylic, and engineered wood. These tools blend affordability with performance for light-duty applications.
Why 4341 HSS Dominates Soft Materials
Optimized Edge Sharpness: 16° rake angle prevents material tearing in plastics.
Polished Flutes: Minimize friction-induced melting in ABS and PVC.
Economic Heat Treatment: Hardened to 60 HRC for 2-3x lifespan vs. carbon steel.
Key Features
Self-Clearing Drill Tip: 118° point angle avoids chip packing in deep wood holes.
Modified UN Thread Profile: For better grip in low-density materials.
Anti-Wander Pilot: Ensures straight starts in curved PVC surfaces.
Furniture Assembly Case Study
A manufacturer of modular shelving systems reported:
80% Faster Installation: Drilling & tapping M3 threads in MDF boards in one step.
Zero Splintering: Critical for pre-finished laminate surfaces.
$0.02 Per Hole Cost: 60% savings over separate tools.
Specifications
Sizes: M2–M6 threads
Coating: Uncoated or PTFE for sticky plastics
Shank: 1/4" hex compatible with handheld drivers
Perfect for: DIY products, electrical conduit systems, and composite panel fabrication.
