MAKITA D-07163 Wood Drill Bit, Round Shank, 8x315x160 mm

MAKITA D-07163 Wood Drill Bit, Round Shank, Size 8x315x160 mm.
The MAKITA D-07163 high-quality wood drill bit is designed for drilling medium-sized (8 mm) and deep holes (overall length 315 mm) in softwood, hardwood, plywood, and all types of wood materials. The drill bit features a Brad Point tip (3-point centering tip) with a center spur for precise centering from the start, and sharp side spurs on the outer edge that score wood fibers before main drilling, delivering smooth hole edges and effectively reducing tear-out. Made from high-quality steel (HSS or high-carbon steel) for high torque resistance. Flutes are designed for rapid chip clearance even when deep drilling. The bit comes with a round shank compatible with standard drill chucks.
