Champion DT22HEX M5 x 0.8 HSS Hex Shank Drill & Tap Combination
The Champion DT22HEX M5 x 0.8 HSS Hex Shank Drill & Tap Combination combines drilling and tapping in one operation for metric threads. It is the exact M5 x 0.8 size for producing a thread-ready hole without changing from a drill to a separate tap.
Built for impact drivers and quick-change chucks, this DT22HEX tool features a 135° self-centering split point, extended drill-and-tap flutes and a black-and-gold surface treatment. Use it for threading steel, stainless steel, aluminum, bronze, cast iron, sheet metal and other common metalworking materials.
Why choose the M5 x 0.8 DT22HEX?
The M5 x 0.8 thread size helps match the tool directly to the fastener or tapped-hole requirement. The hex shank supports rapid changes in impact-ready tools, while the one-pass drill-and-tap design reduces setup time for electrical, HVAC, fabrication, maintenance and equipment-mounting work.
Key Features
- M5 x 0.8 metric thread size for an exact fastener match.
- Drills and taps in one operation.
- 135° self-centering split point helps reduce walking.
- Extended drill and tap flutes for heavy-duty threading applications.
- 1/4" hex shank for impact drivers and quick-change chucks.
- High-speed steel with black-and-gold surface treatment.
