Spiral cutting drill bit Makita D-16069, diameter 2 cm, 1 pc

Makita D-16069 is a single spiral cutting drill bit with a 2 cm diameter designed for general-purpose drilling in wood. The bit combines a spiral flute profile for efficient chip evacuation with a hex shank for secure coupling to handheld and bench drills. Made from stainless steel and supplied as one piece, this drill bit is intended for repair, construction and installation tasks where a 20 mm hole is required.

Advantages

The spiral flute geometry promotes stable cutting and continuous removal of chips, reducing clogging and helping to maintain drilling speed and accuracy. The hex shank provides improved grip in chucks and quick-change adapters to minimize slippage during operation. Stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance for longer tool life in common workshop environments. The single-piece supply allows straightforward replacement and inventory management.

Suitable for

• Drilling clean 20 mm holes in soft and medium-density wood
• Repair and maintenance tasks with handheld or bench drills
• Joinery and installation work requiring through-holes or pilot holes
• Quick bit changes using hex-shank compatible chucks and adapters

How to use

Secure the Makita D-16069 drill bit in a compatible drill chuck or quick-change hex adapter until it is held firmly. Mark the drilling position on the workpiece and clamp the workpiece to prevent movement. Start drilling at low speed to establish the hole, then increase speed as appropriate for the wood species and bit size while maintaining steady, even pressure. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips if drilling deep holes and allow the bit to cool. After use, clean chips from the flute and store the bit in a dry location.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use appropriate drilling speeds for wood and avoid excessive side pressure. When drilling hardwoods or deep holes, reduce speed and clear chips more frequently. Match the hex shank to a compatible chuck or quick-change holder and check the bit for wear before each use; replace if cutting performance deteriorates.
