Drill bit Dedra WDD06230 — 6 mm x 230 mm, for wood, 1 pc

Dedra WDD06230 wood drill bit is a single-piece metal bit with a 6 mm diameter and 230 mm overall length designed for drilling deeper, straight holes in wood and wood-based materials. The bit is intended for use with handheld drills and drill presses where extended reach and controlled penetration are required for carpentry, joinery, furniture assembly and renovation tasks.

Advantages

The solid construction provides consistent concentricity and reduced vibration during drilling. Its 230 mm length offers extended reach for drilling through thick panels or for making deep pilot holes without changing to an extension. The 6 mm diameter is a common size for dowels, screws and pilot holes, making the bit a practical choice for precision woodworking tasks. Compatibility with standard drill chucks ensures straightforward mounting and use.

Suitable for

• Drilling pilot holes for screws and dowels in solid wood and laminated boards
• Creating deep holes for joinery and furniture assembly
• Renovation work requiring extended-reach drilling in timber structures
• Use with handheld drills and drill presses for controlled straight holes

Key specifications

• Diameter: 6 mm
• Overall length: 230 mm
• Material compatibility: wood and wood-based materials
• Construction: single-piece metal drill bit
• Quantity: 1 piece

How to use

Secure the Dedra 6 mm x 230 mm bit in the drill chuck and tighten according to the drill manufacturer's instructions. Mark the drilling position on the workpiece and clamp the piece to prevent movement. Start drilling at low speed to establish the hole, then increase speed while maintaining steady pressure and alignment to keep the hole straight. For deep holes, periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips and reduce heat buildup. After use, clean wood debris from the flutes and store the bit in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection and hearing protection as needed) and select drill speed suitable for the wood type. Avoid excessive side loading to prevent bending; if very deep holes or larger diameters are required, consider step drilling or using a bit designed for that purpose.
