Drill Bit MODECO MN-61-628 28 mm paddle (wiertło łopatkowe)

Drill Bit MODECO MN-61-628 28 mm paddle (wiertło łopatkowe) is a flat paddle bit designed for drilling larger, clean holes in wood and similar soft materials. With a 28 mm diameter, this MODECO bit is intended for use with standard electric drills and drill drivers and is suitable for tasks in carpentry, door and window installation and general woodworking where a wider bore is required. The paddle geometry provides efficient wood removal and a clear central point helps start the hole accurately.

Advantages

The MODECO MN-61-628 paddle bit offers a simple, reliable design that produces wide, smooth holes with minimal tear-out when used correctly. Its flat paddle shape accelerates chip evacuation, reducing clogging during continuous drilling in soft timber and board materials. Compatibility with standard drill chucks makes it easy to change and use with common electric drills and cordless drivers. The 28 mm diameter addresses common needs for creating openings for hardware, dowels or cable passages in wooden elements.

Suitable for

• Carpentry and joinery — creating holes for fittings and dowels
• Door and window installation — drilling openings for locks, handles and fasteners
• General woodworking — making pass-through holes and recesses in softwood, plywood and chipboard
• Electrical and low-voltage installation — drilling entry holes for cables and conduits in wooden structures

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the drill chuck so it is tightly clamped and centered. Mark the drilling position on the workpiece and, where possible, use a pilot mark or center punch to prevent wandering. Start drilling at low speed to establish the central position, then increase speed and apply steady pressure while allowing the paddle to remove chips. Withdraw the bit periodically for deep holes to clear debris and avoid overheating. For best results, clamp the workpiece and support the exit side to reduce splintering.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and hearing protection. For clean exits on veneered or fragile surfaces, place masking tape over the drilling point or support the underside with a sacrificial board. Do not use this paddle bit on metal or masonry; it is intended for wood and similar soft materials only.
