Drill Bit Bosch 2608628344 Shank diameter 8 mm Working length 1.02 cm

The Bosch 2608628344 drill bit has an 8 mm shank diameter and a working length of 1.02 cm, designed for precise, short-depth drilling tasks. Its compact working length and standard shank size make it compatible with many cordless and corded drills, allowing controlled penetration in thin materials or when only shallow holes are required.

Advantages

This drill bit offers a compact working length that improves control and reduces the risk of over-penetration. The 8 mm shank diameter provides stable chuck fit and torque transfer during operation. Its construction is intended for repeated use in light to medium-duty applications, ensuring consistent hole quality and straight drilling alignment.

Suitable for

• Drilling shallow guide holes in wood, plastic, and thin metal sheets
• Installing fixtures where limited depth is required
• Precision DIY tasks and professional repair work

Key specifications

• Shank diameter: 8 mm
• Working length: 1.02 cm
• Intended use: short-depth drilling
• Compatibility: standard drill chucks suitable for 8 mm shanks

How to use

Select an appropriate drill with a chuck that securely accepts an 8 mm shank. Mark the drilling point and, if required, clamp the workpiece to prevent movement. Fit the drill bit into the chuck and tighten securely. Start drilling at low speed to establish the hole, then apply steady pressure until the required depth is reached. Withdraw the bit periodically if drilling through material that generates chips or heat.

Usage recommendations

For clean, accurate holes use a drill press or guide when possible and select drilling speed according to the material: lower speeds for metals, moderate speeds for plastics and woods. Apply cutting lubricant when drilling metal to reduce heat and extend bit life. Inspect the bit before use and replace if excessively worn or damaged.
