Fine hole drilling for RC model projects

The Tamiya 74096 Fine Drill Bit is a must-have for hobbyists who need exact, tiny holes when modifying or detailing RC kits. At 0.8mm diameter it fits Tamiya Fine Pin Vises (Item 74050, 74051) for steady manual drilling and controlled work on body panels and electronics mounts.

High-speed steel for long life

Made from high-speed steel (HSS), the Tamiya 74096 keeps a sharp edge for longer runs and repeated use. It handles plastics, wood and soft aluminium reliably, making it a practical option for mixed-material modelling tasks.

Works with manual and electric tools

This bit also plugs into the Tamiya Electric Handy Drill (Item 74041) so you can switch between pin vises and powered drilling depending on the job. Use it for fine detail holes or light structural work where accuracy matters.

Can I use this bit on aluminium chassis parts?

Yes. The HSS construction is suitable for soft metals like aluminium, but use light pressure and a steady speed to avoid overheating or breakage.

What is the best way to hold the bit when drilling fine holes?

For the most control use a fine pin vise such as Tamiya items 74050 or 74051. If using the electric drill, clamp the work and run at low speed.

How do I avoid snapping the 0.8mm bit?

Apply light, steady pressure, use a pilot hole if needed in harder plastics, and back the bit out regularly to clear debris. A slower drill speed reduces the risk of breakage.
