Replace the broken drill bit with a new one of the same size. Review the drilling technique and ensure you are using the correct speed and pressure.

Troubleshooting

Drill bit is breaking easily.

Reduce the drilling speed, apply even pressure, and ensure the drill bit is suitable for the metal being drilled. Use cutting oil.

Ensure the drill bit is sharp, use a pilot hole, and maintain a steady drilling speed and pressure. Check that the drill bit is suitable for the material.
