Spiral cutting drill bit Makita D-34104 diameter 3.2 cm

The Makita D-34104 spiral cutting drill bit with a 3.2 cm diameter is designed for precision drilling tasks where a clean, smooth hole is required. Constructed for accuracy and consistent chip evacuation, this spiral cut drill bit is suitable for a range of materials and offers a straightforward solution for both professional and home workshop applications.

Advantages

This spiral cutting drill bit provides controlled cutting action and improved chip removal thanks to its helical flute geometry. The 3.2 cm diameter gives a large, stable bore for applications that require precise hole size. Manufactured to meet Makita quality standards, the bit is balanced between hardness for wear resistance and enough toughness to reduce breakage risk during normal use.

Suitable for

• Drilling large-diameter holes in wood and composite materials
• Creating clean openings for dowels, pipes, or wiring passages
• General-purpose carpentry and joinery tasks
• Workshop and on-site drilling where accuracy and chip control matter

Key specifications

• Cutting type: spiral/helical flute
• Nominal diameter: 3.2 cm
• Intended use: through-holes and clearance holes
• Material compatibility: wood, wood-based panels, and some composites
• Design focus: chip evacuation and smooth cutting

How to use

Select an appropriate drill or drill press that accepts the shank size of the spiral cutting drill bit and secure the workpiece to prevent movement. Mark the drilling point and start at low speed to establish the cut, then increase to a steady speed suitable for the material. Apply consistent, moderate pressure and allow the spiral flute to remove chips; retract occasionally on deep holes to clear debris and prevent clogging. After use, clean any residue from the flutes and store the bit in a protective holder.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match drilling speed to the material being processed and avoid excessive feed force. Use cutting lubricant only if recommended for the specific material. Inspect the bit for wear or damage before each use and replace when cutting performance degrades to maintain hole quality and safety.
