Twist Wood Drill Bit GEKO G37368 — auger 22×230 mm, pack 25/50

GEKO twist (auger) wood drill bit G37368 with a 22 mm cutting diameter and 230 mm overall length is designed for drilling clean, deep holes in solid wood, timber and common wood-based materials. The spiraled flute design evacuates chips efficiently along the shaft, maintaining drilling speed and reducing heat build-up. The bit is supplied in pack quantities listed as 25/50, making it suitable for professional settings or larger production runs where repeatability and supply consistency are important.

Advantages

The auger-style tip and sharp cutting edges provide fast penetration and accurate centering without excessive wandering on the workpiece surface. The spiral flute geometry promotes rapid chip removal to prevent clogging and to maintain a consistent cutting action. Manufactured to typical workshop tolerances, this wood drill bit offers uniform hole diameter and straight drilling performance across repeated operations. Its overall length allows through-holes and deeper bore requirements while preserving stable handling when used with handheld drills or drill presses.

Suitable for

• Drilling through solid timber, softwoods and hardwoods
• Creating holes in plywood, particleboard and other engineered wood panels
• Repetitive production drilling in workshops and construction sites
• Installing dowels, bolts or running conduit through wooden members

How to use

Secure the workpiece firmly to prevent movement and select an appropriate drill speed for the wood species; lower speeds for hardwoods and higher speeds for softer woods. Install the auger bit in the drill chuck ensuring it is properly centered and tightened. Begin drilling with steady pressure, allowing the spiraled flute to remove chips; withdraw the bit occasionally on deep holes to clear accumulated chips if required. After use, clean debris from the flutes and store the bit dry to prevent corrosion and preserve cutting edges.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match drill speed and feed force to the material: use moderate speed for hardwoods and a higher speed for softwoods, and apply consistent pressure without forcing the bit. When precision placement is required, pre-mark the center and consider a small pilot hole to improve accuracy. Replace or sharpen the bit when cutting edges show wear to maintain clean hole quality.
