Drill Bit Bosch 8 mm Diameter 2608833823

The Bosch drill bit with an 8 mm diameter is a standard twist drill designed for creating precise 8 mm holes in materials compatible with HSS or high-quality steel bits. Intended for use with electric or cordless drills that accept standard cylindrical shank bits, this drill bit is suitable for common construction, installation and repair tasks requiring a reliable 8 mm hole. The bit’s dimensions and geometry are optimized for straightforward drilling performance and compatibility with a wide range of hand and power drills.

Advantages

This 8 mm Bosch drill bit offers consistent hole diameter and predictable centring thanks to its twist-drill geometry. The bit is manufactured to dimensional tolerances that support repeatable results when used with compatible drill chucks. Its standard shank and length make it easy to change in most drill chucks and to use in confined spaces where an 8 mm hole is required. The design focuses on general-purpose drilling performance for common materials.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Drilling 8 mm diameter clearance or pilot holes in metal, wood, and certain plastics when material compatibility is appropriate
• Installation of fasteners and anchors that require an 8 mm hole
• General repair, assembly and construction tasks using a standard 8 mm twist drill
• Workshop and on-site drilling where a simple, reliable 8 mm bit is needed

Key specifications

• Nominal diameter: 8 mm
• Drill type: standard twist drill (straight flute geometry)
• Shank style: cylindrical shank for standard drill chucks
• Typical applications: metal, wood, plastics (subject to material hardness and bit material)
• Intended for use with electric and cordless drills accepting standard shank bits

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the drill’s chuck, making sure it is centred and tightened to prevent wobble. Select an appropriate drill speed and apply steady pressure; slower speeds are recommended for harder materials and higher speeds for softer materials. Use cutting fluid when drilling metals to reduce heat and wear. After drilling, clear chips from the hole and inspect the hole diameter for fit with the intended fastener or anchor.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match drill speed and lubrication to the material being drilled, wear eye protection and follow the drill manufacturer’s safety guidance. Verify material compatibility with a standard 8 mm twist drill before use and test on scrap material if unsure.
