Collection: Step Drill Bits

Atlas Tools step bits are engineered for accurate, precise hole enlargement across a wide range of materials. Designed for smooth, controlled cutting, these step bits deliver clean holes with excellent repeatability. Whether you’re drilling thin sheet metal, plastics, aluminium, or steel, our step bits provide consistent performance and reduced chatter.

Available in multiple sizes, step configurations, steel grades, and advanced coatings, Atlas Tools step bits are built to suit both light-duty and heavy-duty applications. High-quality steel construction ensures strength and heat resistance, while optional coatings improve wear life, reduce friction, and maintain cutting efficiency at higher speeds. Clear step markings allow fast, accurate sizing, helping tradespeople work efficiently without constant tool changes.

Trusted by electricians, fabricators, sign makers, and general trades, these step bits are built for precision, durability, and reliability.

Key Features:
- Engineered for accurate and precise drilling
- Multiple coatings for improved wear and heat resistance
- Wide range of sizes and step increments
- Premium steel grades for strength and longevity
- Clean, controlled cutting with minimal burrs
