MAKITA D-07179 Wood Drill Bit, Round Shank, 10x315x160 mm

MAKITA D-07179 Wood Drill Bit, Round Shank, Size 10x315x160 mm.
High-quality wood drill bit from MAKITA, model D-07179, designed for drilling medium-sized (10 mm) and deep (overall length 315 mm) holes in softwood, hardwood, plywood, and all types of wood materials. The drill bit tip is a Brad Point (3-point centering tip) featuring a sharp center point that precisely centers drilling from the start, along with two sharp cutting spurs on the outer edge that sever the wood grain before the main drilling action, effectively producing smooth hole edges and minimizing splintering. The bit body is made of high-quality steel (HSS or high carbon steel) for resistance against high torque. The flutes are engineered for rapid chip removal even during deep drilling. The bit has a round shank, compatible with standard drill chucks.
