MAKITA D-07157 Wood Drill Bit, Round Shank, 6x315x160 mm

MAKITA D-07157 Wood Drill Bit, Round Shank, Size 6x315x160 mm.
This high-quality wood drill bit from MAKITA, model D-07157, is designed for drilling small-diameter (6 mm) but extra-long (315 mm) holes in softwood, hardwood, plywood, and all types of wood materials. The drill tip is a Brad Point (3-point centering tip) style, featuring a sharp center point that accurately centers the drilling right from the start, along with sharp cutting spurs on both outer edges that score the wood fibers before the main cut, resulting in smooth hole edges and effectively minimizing splintering. The bit body is manufactured from high-quality steel (HSS or high-carbon steel) for high torque resistance. The flutes are engineered to evacuate wood chips quickly even during deep drilling. The shank is a round shank, compatible with standard drill chucks.
