Safetrack's twist drills are developed for professional drilling in railway rails and other high-strength steel materials used in the rail industry. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) and featuring the patented Durablue coating, these drills provide excellent wear resistance, extended service life and reliable performance in demanding railway maintenance applications.
Drilling into railway rails requires both precision and durable tooling. Our twist drills are designed for rail steel up to 1100 N and deliver stable drilling performance with a long service life during the installation and maintenance of cable connections, grounding systems and other railway infrastructure.
The durable Durablue coating reduces tool wear and increases drill longevity, even during repeated drilling in hard materials. The result is consistent performance, fewer tool changes and lower operating costs.
For drill sizes between 6 and 12 mm, the twist drills are used together with the SAFE 59WA612 adapter, ensuring secure mounting and optimum performance when used with rail drilling equipment.
Safetrack's twist drills are used by railway contractors, maintenance organisations and infrastructure owners for the installation of SafePlug®, cable connections, grounding systems and other applications where accurate and reliable drilling in railway rails is essential.
For the best drilling performance, we recommend using our Super Drilling Paste, which reduces heat generation, improves cutting performance and extends tool life.
