Drill Bit Bosch cylindrical 10 mm 2608597733 for metal and wood

Bosch cylindrical drill bit 10 mm is designed for general drilling tasks in metal and wood. The 10 mm diameter provides a standard bore size for through-holes, clearance holes and pilot holes. The bit is suitable for use with handheld drills and drill presses and is intended for fabrication, construction, maintenance and DIY applications that require straight, accurate holes.

Advantages

The cylindrical shank ensures secure clamping in standard drill chucks and provides stable rotation during operation. The 10 mm diameter offers a balance between material removal rate and hole precision for common mechanical and carpentry tasks. The geometry of the tip and flutes is optimized for cutting and chip evacuation in both metal and wood, enabling consistent drilling performance across different materials.

Suitable for

• Drilling clearance and through-holes in metal sheets and plates
• Creating pilot holes and dowel holes in wood
• General maintenance and repair tasks requiring straight holes
• Workshop and professional construction applications with handheld drills or drill presses

Key specifications

• Diameter: 10 mm
• Shank type: cylindrical
• Material compatibility: metal and wood
• Use with: handheld drills and drill presses
• Typical applications: through-holes, clearance holes, pilot holes

How to use

Choose an appropriate drill speed and clamp the workpiece securely before drilling. Insert the cylindrical shank into the drill chuck and tighten firmly. For metal, use cutting fluid or lubricant to reduce heat and improve tool life; for wood, ensure proper support to prevent splintering. Apply steady, even pressure and allow the bit to cut without forcing. Retract the bit occasionally to clear chips when drilling deeper holes.

Usage recommendations

For best results, select a drill speed suited to the material thickness and hardness, use proper clamping and lubrication for metal, and replace the bit when wear degrades hole quality. Store the bit in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
