Drill bit Globus KWPN 6 — cylindrical shank, 6 mm

Globus KWPN 6 is a cylindrical-shank twist drill with a 6 mm cutting diameter, designed for routine drilling tasks in workshops and on-site jobs. The drill bit is made for use in standard chucks that accept cylindrical shanks and is compatible with hand drills and drill presses. Its geometry suits general-purpose drilling in materials such as metals and wood, offering a straightforward solution when a reliable 6 mm hole is required.

Advantages

The cylindrical shank provides secure clamping in standard chucks and reduces slippage during operation. A 6 mm cutting diameter makes this drill suitable for a wide range of fastening and assembly tasks. The twist-drill design ensures effective chip evacuation and consistent hole quality across common materials. The simple, durable construction supports repeated use in general workshop environments.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in steel, non-ferrous metals and castings
• Woodworking tasks requiring 6 mm holes
• General maintenance and assembly in workshops
• Use with hand-held electric drills and bench drill presses

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 6 mm
• Shank type: cylindrical
• Drill style: twist drill
• Typical applications: metalworking, wood drilling, general-purpose workshop use

How to use

Select a suitable drill chuck that accepts cylindrical shanks and secure the Globus KWPN 6 bit firmly. Set an appropriate rotational speed for the material being drilled — lower speeds for hard metals and higher speeds for softer metals and wood. Use cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling metals to reduce heat and improve tool life. Apply steady feed pressure, avoid excessive force, and periodically retract the bit to clear chips for deeper holes.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the bit for damage before use and replace if the cutting edges are worn or chipped. Match drill speed and lubrication to the work material: use cutting oil for steel and higher rpm for wood. Ensure the chuck holds the cylindrical shank securely to prevent runout and ensure straight, accurate holes.
