Power drill accessory GRAPHITE 56H406 — wood drill bit, 76 mm length, 10 mm diameter, 1 pc

GRAPHITE 56H406 is a single-piece power drill accessory designed for drilling wood and other soft materials. The solid shank bit is 76 mm in overall length with a 10 mm working diameter and is supplied as a single unit in a blister pack. The 4-bladed construction features a pilot tip and a titanium nitride (TiN) coated cutting surface for increased wear resistance during general woodworking, repair and installation tasks using standard cordless and corded drills.

Advantages

The 56H406 drill bit offers a combination of a 4-blade geometry and a pilot tip to produce clean round holes with reduced splintering in timber and similar materials. A TiN coating on the cutting edges improves surface hardness and extends tool life under normal drilling conditions. The round shank holder is compatible with standard chucks and the single-piece design provides rigidity for straightforward drilling operations.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in soft timber and plywood
• Work on plastics and non-ferrous materials such as aluminium
• General repair and installation tasks requiring 10 mm holes

Key specifications

• Drill bit diameter: 10 mm
• Overall length: 76 mm
• Design: single-piece, 4-bladed bit with pilot tip
• Coating: titanium nitride (TiN) on cutting edges
• Material: SiC blade
• Shank type: round holder for standard chucks
• Packaging: 1 piece in blister pack

How to use

Secure the round shank in the drill chuck and tighten according to your drill manufacturer’s recommendations. Select appropriate rotational speed for the material being drilled—lower speeds for harder or thicker workpieces, moderate speeds for typical timber and plastics. Apply steady, even pressure to allow the pilot tip and cutting edges to engage the material and withdraw periodically to clear chips when drilling deep holes. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection and hearing protection as required.

Usage recommendations

Use the GRAPHITE 56H406 for hammerless drilling only; it is intended for standard drilling action rather than hammer or impact modes. For cleaner entry and exit in thin laminates or veneered boards, consider backing the workpiece. Store the bit in its blister pack or a dry tool case to preserve the TiN coating and prevent corrosion.
