MAKITA D-60040 HSS-G Black Oxide Metal Drill Bit 17/64x4-1/8 Inch

MAKITA D-60040 HSS-G Black Oxide Metal Drill Bit Size 17/64x4-1/8 Inch
Features The D-60040 drill bit belongs to Makita's Imperial HSS-G Black Oxide drill bit series, which are high-quality drill bits for metal drilling. This 17/64-inch (6.75 mm) drill bit is designed to provide a good balance between strength and precision.HSS-G (Fully Ground): Made of High-Speed Steel (HSS) and precision ground along its entire length (Fully Ground), resulting in sharp cutting edges and uniform geometry, which helps stabilize drilling and effectively evacuate metal chips (Chip Removal).Black Oxide Coating: The black oxide coating primarily serves to resist rust and corrosion. It also helps reduce friction and heat buildup while drilling metal, resulting in a longer bit service life.135° Split Point: The 135-degree split point allows the bit to immediately penetrate the workpiece without slipping (Self-centering), making drilling 17/64-inch holes fast and precise.                                                    Features
