Drill bit Dedra 08W004 — steel, 1 pc

Dedra 08W004 is a single steel drill bit supplied as one piece for general drilling tasks. Manufactured for common drills that accept standard shanks, this steel bit is intended for applications where a durable cutting tip is required and the work material is compatible with a plain steel drill. The product provides a straightforward solution for workshop, home improvement and repair jobs that do not require specialized coatings or carbide tips.

Advantages

The steel construction offers reliable hardness and edge retention for routine drilling in softer metals, wood and some plastics when used appropriately. Supplied as an individual piece, the bit is easy to store and replace. The standard shank design ensures compatibility with a wide range of handheld and bench drills, allowing quick installation and secure clamping. This drill bit is a practical choice when a basic, cost-effective cutting tool is sufficient for the task.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in soft metals such as aluminium and thin steel sheets
• Woodworking tasks and furniture assembly
• Plastic components and non-reinforced polymer parts
• General maintenance, repairs and DIY projects

Key specifications

• Material: steel construction suitable for general-purpose drilling
• Quantity: single-piece supply
• Shank type: standard straight shank compatible with common drill chucks
• Intended use: manual and powered drilling in materials compatible with steel bits

How to use

Select the appropriate drill speed and clamp the bit securely in the drill chuck before starting. Mark the drilling point and, if necessary, use a centre punch for accurate positioning on metal surfaces. Apply steady pressure and allow the bit to cut at its own pace; avoid excessive force which can cause bit overheating or breakage. For metal drilling, use cutting fluid or lubricant to reduce heat and improve tool life. After use, clean debris from the flutes and store the bit in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use the Dedra steel drill bit for routine workshop and DIY tasks where a plain steel cutting edge is appropriate. Avoid using this bit on hardened alloys, reinforced composites or masonry. For prolonged drilling in metal, periodic lubrication and moderate speeds extend bit life. Replace the bit if the cutting edges become dull or damaged to maintain safety and drilling quality.
