MAKITA D-23145 Wood Drill Bit Round Shank 1/2" x 12"

MAKITA D-23145 Wood Drill Bit Round Shank 1/2 x 12 Inch
High-quality wood drill bit from MAKITA, model D-23145, designed for drilling medium-sized holes (1/2 inch) with an extra-long reach (12 inches) in softwoods and hardwoods. The drill bit tip features a Brad Point or Ship Auger screw tip for precise starting and self-feeding into the wood. Large flutes provide fast and continuous chip evacuation, reducing chip buildup and heat. Made from high-carbon steel or HSS for high torque resistance. The round shank fits standard 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch drill chucks, making it ideal for deep-hole drilling in wood beams to run conduits, bolts, or electrical wires.
