Drill bit GRAPHITE 57H240 — single piece, weight 54 g

GRAPHITE 57H240 is a single-piece wood spade drill bit supplied as one unit with a net weight of 54 g. The drill bit features a specially profiled blade that reduces material tearing and increases drilling efficiency in wood. A hexagonal quick-change shank enables use with magnetic holders and compatible cordless drivers, making this bit suitable as a spare or replacement for a variety of rotary tools.

Advantages

The spade profile is designed to concentrate cutting action at the tip for faster penetration and flatter chip removal, which helps double drilling speed compared with conventional twist bits when working in soft and medium-density wood. The shaped blade reduces splintering on the exit side, providing cleaner holes. The hexagonal quick-change shank ensures secure grip in quick-change chucks and magnetic holders, improving runout stability during operation. Compact single-piece supply makes storage and inventory straightforward for small tasks and repair jobs.

Suitable for

• Drilling clean holes in soft and medium-density wood
• Carpentry repair and joinery tasks
• DIY projects and home maintenance
• Use with cordless screwdrivers and drills equipped with magnetic quick-change holders

Key specifications

• Type: wood spade drill bit
• Pack quantity: 1 piece
• Net weight: 54 g
• Shank style: hexagonal quick-change
• Blade profile: spade with anti-tear geometry for reduced splintering

How to use

Insert the hexagonal shank into a compatible quick-change holder or the chuck of a cordless screwdriver or drill, ensuring the shank is fully seated and locked. Mark the drilling point and secure the workpiece to prevent movement. Start drilling at low speed to establish the center, then increase speed as required for efficient cutting. Apply steady, even pressure; avoid excessive force to prevent bit wandering or overheating. For exit-side protection, support the underside of the workpiece or back up the drilling area with scrap material to minimize splintering.

Usage recommendations

For prolonged bit life, keep drilling speeds appropriate to the wood density and periodically clear wood chips from the hole. Store the bit dry and clean to prevent corrosion and inspect the cutting edges before use; replace the bit when significant wear or damage is visible.
