Spiral cutting drill bit Makita Nemesis 12 mm, 1 pc

Spiral cutting drill bit Makita Nemesis 12 mm is a single-piece twist bit designed for use with standard drills. It delivers consistent drilling performance for general-purpose tasks where a 12 mm diameter is required. The bit is intended primarily for wood and plastics and can be used on some light metals depending on the drill power and operator feed rate.

Advantages

The Makita Nemesis spiral geometry enables efficient chip evacuation and reduced clogging during drilling. A precision-ground cutting edge offers stable centring and smoother penetration, while the robust construction ensures durability under normal working conditions. Compatibility with common drill chucks makes the bit easy to install and replace.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in soft and hard wood
• Cutting through plastics and composite materials
• Light-gauge metal drilling when used with appropriate drill speed and lubrication
• General-purpose workshop and on-site drilling tasks

Key specifications

• Diameter: 12 mm
• Type: Spiral (twist) cutting drill bit
• Units per pack: 1 piece
• Compatibility: Standard drill chucks
• Primary materials: Wood and plastics; applicable to some light metals with correct settings

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the chuck of a standard drill and tighten firmly. Select an appropriate drill speed for the material being drilled—lower speeds for metals and higher speeds for wood and plastics. Apply steady, even pressure and allow the bit to remove chips naturally; avoid excessive force that can cause overheating or breakage. Withdraw the bit periodically when drilling deep holes to clear chips and reduce heat buildup.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metals, use coolant or light cutting oil and run the drill at reduced speed. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Inspect the bit for wear before use and replace if the cutting edge becomes dull or damaged.
