Drill bit Proline 26626, metal, Ø26 mm, length 150 mm, 1 pc

Proline 26626 is a single metal drill bit with a 26 mm diameter and 150 mm overall length, designed specifically for drilling metal. The bit is intended for creating larger-diameter holes in sheet metal, pipes and structural steel. It is supplied as one piece and is compatible with drills and drivers that accept its hexagonal shank; the bit is delivered in a plastic case for protection and storage.

Advantages

The drill bit features a ground point and blade geometry that supports precise centering and reduces wandering at the start of a hole. Its hexagonal shank provides secure grip in compatible chucks and quick bit changes in quick-release holders. Supplied in a plastic case, the bit is protected during transport and storage and is easy to keep organized with other tools.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in sheet metal and metal panels
• Creating openings in metal pipes and tubular sections
• Fabrication and installation tasks on structural steel
• Repair and maintenance work requiring larger metal holes

How to use

Select a drill or driver that accepts a 26 mm bit with a hexagonal shank and secure the Proline 26626 in the chuck or quick-change holder. Mark and, if needed, clamp the workpiece to prevent movement. Begin drilling at low speed to ensure the ground point centers the bit, then increase speed and apply steady, moderate pressure appropriate for metalworking. Use cutting fluid or coolant as required for the metal type and hole size, and clear chips periodically to prevent overheating.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metal, use appropriate cutting fluid, maintain a steady feed rate, and monitor bit temperature to prolong tool life. Ensure the drill and holder are rated for the bit diameter and hexagonal shank for safe operation.
