Drill bit GRAPHITE spiral wood hex shank 6 mm T 57H352

Spiral wood drill bit by GRAPHITE with a 6 mm cutting diameter and hexagonal shank, designed to create clean, precise holes in wood and wood-based materials. The spiral flute geometry efficiently evacuates chips and reduces clogging during drilling, while the sharp tip facilitates centering and smooth penetration. The hex shank provides secure grip in chucks and compatibility with quick-change systems commonly used in cordless and corded drills.

Advantages

This GRAPHITE spiral wood drill bit offers consistent hole quality and fast chip removal thanks to its spiral flute design. The 6 mm diameter is suitable for a range of joinery and installation tasks, and the hexagonal shank improves bit retention and torque transfer in drill chucks and bit holders. The bit is intended for reliable, general-purpose woodworking applications and reduces the need for rework when drilling soft and hard wood, plywood and composite boards.

Suitable for

• Drilling through solid wood and softwood
• Plywood and particleboard drilling
• Furniture assembly and dowel/fastener pilot holes
• Carpentry, joinery and repair tasks

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 6 mm
• Shank type: hexagonal
• Flute type: spiral (twist) for chip evacuation
• Material compatibility: solid wood, softwood, plywood, particleboard and other wood-based materials
• Typical use: general-purpose wood drilling

How to use

Secure the bit in the drill chuck or quick-change bit holder, ensuring the hex shank is fully seated. Mark the drilling point and, if precise positioning is required, use a center punch or pilot mark. Start drilling at low speed to establish the hole and then increase speed as the bit penetrates the material, applying steady axial pressure. Allow the spiral flute to remove chips; withdraw the bit periodically for deep holes to clear debris and avoid overheating. For best results, clamp the workpiece and use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and hearing protection.

Usage recommendations

Use this 6 mm spiral wood drill bit for clean, efficient drilling in wood and wood-based panels. Match drill speed and feed to material density: lower speeds for harder or laminated boards, moderate speeds for softwood. Regularly inspect the cutting edge for wear and replace the bit when performance degrades.
