Step drill bits are especially nice for drilling through sheet metal as they make a smoother exit than regular twist drill bits.
As a little bonus, the holes usually come out slightly countersunk - not at the right angle to receive a sunk screw, but already deburred (entgratet).

- 4-20 mm (2 mm steps)
- 4-32 mm (2 mm steps)
