Drill Bit Bosch 5 mm Diameter model 2609255500 for metal and wood drilling

Bosch 5 mm drill bit model 2609255500 is a general-purpose twist drill designed for drilling clean holes in metal and wood. The 5 mm diameter provides a precise pilot or through hole for assembly, repairs and various DIY tasks. The bit is compatible with standard three-jaw chucks on both corded and cordless drills and is intended for routine workshop and household use.

Advantages

The drill bit combines compact size with stable cutting geometry to deliver consistent hole quality in a range of common materials. Its 5 mm diameter offers repeatable accuracy for bolt, screw and dowel holes, while the universal shank fits most drills. The design reduces walking at the drill start and supports straightforward chip evacuation during use.

Suitable for

• Drilling pilot and through holes in sheet and plate metal
• Drilling holes in soft and hardwood for fittings and dowels
• Home improvement, furniture assembly and general repair work
• Use with corded and cordless electric drills

Key specifications

• Diameter: 5 mm
• Type: Twist drill bit
• Material suitability: Metal and wood
• Shank style: Straight shank compatible with standard drill chucks
• Typical applications: General-purpose drilling for assembly and repair

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the chuck and tighten firmly. Select a drill speed appropriate for the material: medium to high speeds for wood and lower speeds for metal with steady feed pressure. Mark the drilling location and, if needed, use a center punch on metal to prevent walking. Apply consistent, even pressure and clear chips periodically to maintain cutting efficiency. After drilling, deburr the hole if required.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metal, use cutting lubricant and moderate speed to extend bit life. When drilling hardwood, ensure the workpiece is clamped and use faster speeds with light feed to avoid splintering. Replace the bit when wear reduces cutting performance or hole quality.
