## Summary description

Makita D-14978 is a 6 mm drill bit supplied as 1 piece, featuring a titanium coating and a hex shank for secure chuck engagement. Designed for general drilling tasks in metal, wood and some plastics, it suits both cordless and corded drills with hex chucks or quick-change adapters. Compact single-pack format for repair or on-site work.

## Long description

Makita D-14978 is a 6 mm titanium-coated drill bit with a 1/4 inch hex shank supplied as a single piece. It is made from high speed steel (HSS) with a split point geometry and a titanium coating to increase wear resistance. The hex shank provides secure engagement in hex chucks or quick-change adapters, making it suitable for general drilling in metal, wood and some plastics with cordless or corded drivers.
Advantages
The drill bit combines HSS material and a titanium coating for improved durability and cutting performance. The split point reduces walking at the start of drilling, while the 1/4 inch hex shank ensures a firm fit in hex chucks and quick-change systems. The single-piece format makes it convenient for repair, maintenance and on-site tasks.
Suitable for
Drilling holes in thin-to-medium gauge metal sheets
General wood drilling and joinery tasks
Drilling in some plastics and composite materials
Use with cordless and corded drivers equipped with hex chucks or quick-change adapters
When it may not be suitable
This 6 mm HSS titanium-coated bit is intended for general-purpose drilling and is not optimized for heavy-duty masonry, concrete, or reinforced concrete work. It is also not recommended for prolonged drilling with impact drivers set to impact mode, as the instruction warns against drilling with impact.
Key specifications
Diameter: 6 mm
Material: High Speed Steel (HSS)
Coating: Titanium
Tip: Split point
Shank type: 1/4" hex shank

How to use
Install the 1/4" hex shank into a compatible hex chuck or quick-change adapter and secure it according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Start drilling at low speed to establish the hole, then increase speed as appropriate for the material. Use cutting lubricant when drilling metals to extend bit life and avoid applying impact mode when using impact drivers. Clear chips regularly to maintain cutting efficiency.
What to consider before purchase
Intended materials: best for metal, wood, and some plastics — not for masonry
Tool compatibility: requires a 1/4" hex chuck or quick-change adapter
Single-piece pack: buy multiples if you need spare bits
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate cutting speed and lubrication when drilling metals, avoid impact mode, and replace the bit when cutting performance declines to maintain consistent hole quality.
