Drill bit GRAPHITE 57H220 — single-piece metal drill bit, MPN 57H220

GRAPHITE 57H220 single-piece metal drill bit is designed for general-purpose drilling in common workshop materials. The bit features a wood spade profile that improves chip removal and reduces material tearing, allowing faster and cleaner drilling. Supplied as one piece per pack, this drill bit fits handheld drills, cordless drivers with magnetic holders and drill presses when used with a compatible chuck or quick-change adapter.

Advantages

The spade-style cutting profile increases drilling speed and improves chip evacuation compared with standard twist bits when working with wood and soft materials. A hexagonal quick-change shank enables secure engagement with quick-change holders and magnetic adapters on cordless screwdrivers, making bit changes fast and straightforward. The single-piece design provides rigidity for stable drilling and reduces the risk of wobble during operation.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in wood and wood-based materials
• Quick hole-making with cordless screwdrivers using magnetic holders
• Workshop and DIY tasks requiring a single spare or replacement bit
• Applications where reduced tear-out and faster chip removal are desired

Key specifications

• Bit type: wood spade-style drill bit
• Shank type: hexagonal quick-change shank
• Supply format: single piece per pack
• Intended use: handheld drills, drill presses, cordless drivers with compatible holders
• Material applications: wood and common workshop materials

How to use

Secure the bit in the drill chuck or quick-change holder until it is firmly seated. For cordless drivers, ensure the magnetic holder accepts hex shanks and locks the bit before starting. Position the tip on the marked spot, start the tool at low speed to create a pilot indentation, then increase speed and apply steady pressure to drill through the material. Withdraw the bit occasionally to clear chips on deeper holes and avoid overheating. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and hearing protection where needed.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling wood, use moderate speed and steady feed to minimize tear-out. When drilling thin or delicate panels, back the workpiece with a sacrificial board to reduce splintering on the exit side. Replace the bit if the cutting edges become dull to maintain clean holes and reduce the risk of burning or excessive force.
