    Forgot Name of German Drill Bits

    I forgot the brand name of a German drill bit I used in the past with good results. I believe it begins with "G" I've searched the forum every way I know with no results. I need to drill a number of 3/32" holes 1/2" deep in 4140. Am thinking of carbide tipped bits.

    Why carbide tips, a regular quality cobalt HSS drill will do all you need and they don't have to be Guhring to drill 4140 there are many quality drill manufactures, with only 1/2" deep to drill, make sure you use a screw machine drill
