Stub drills (screw machine twist drills) have a shorter overall length than Twist drills for maximum rigidity and longer tool life.
135° Split Point (crankshaft point).
Split point is self centering and the short distance from the drill axis to the outer corners results in faster penetration, reducing the need for end thrust.
They are designed primarily for machining operations in lathes (screw machines) but can also be used in manual hand held drills.
Bordo Stub Drills have two helical flutes with 30 degrees of helix angle. This provides fast chip ejection and very stable drilling operation.
Bright Finish Twist Drills have no surface treatment and are supplied in the as-ground condition. These tools are suitable for general purpose use, particularly for non-ferrous applications.
Notched point is a variation on the standard chisel point, providing faster starting and reduced drill wander.
118° point angles are ideal for use in materials such as mild steel and cast iron.
The 118° point creates easily controlled chips which are wide and thin.
Bordo reduced shank HSS drills are ground and then a black finish is achieved by steam tempering, a thermal process resulting in a porous tool coating.
This surface aids chip flow and heat dissipation.
The drill is then ground a second time to achieve a bright finish on the shank and cutting edges.

Black Finish Stub Drills (also called blue finish) achieve their distinctive colour by steam tempering, a thermal process resulting in a porous tool coating.
Black finish tools are generally recommended for ferrous applications where the oxide layer aids chip flow and heat dissipation.

Bordo Metric Red Band HSS-Co TiAlN Coated Twist Drills for Tough Treatable Steel.
DIN338
130° UX point with two helical parabolic flutes with 33 degrees of helix angle.
The mechanical properties of materials are influenced diversely by the addition of alloying elements and heat treatment processes, resulting in some high-strength, quenched and tempered steels or hardened steels.
This range has its own unique set of machining requirements which are satisfied by the Red Band – Tough Treatable Steel – Series.
TiAlN coating increases tool surface hardness to 87Rc.
For machining materials with Hardness < 470 HB : Tensile Strength <1500 N/mm2.
