Drill bit Proline 26826 — metal bit Ø26 mm, length 230 mm, 1 pc

Proline 26826 is a single metal drill bit with a 26 mm cutting diameter and an overall length of 230 mm. Designed for drilling large holes in metal, this bit is intended for use with compatible drill machines where extended reach and stable cutting are required. The product is supplied as one piece and comes in a plastic case for storage and transport.

Advantages

This drill bit features a threaded guide blade that helps pull the bit into the workpiece for controlled feed and improved centering when starting a hole. The hexagonal shank provides secure clamping in chucks and reduces slippage during use. The long 230 mm overall length gives extended reach for through-holes and working on thicker assemblies or recessed areas, while the single-piece supply and plastic case simplify handling and storage.

Suitable for

• Drilling through sheet metal and metal plates
• Creating large-diameter holes in structural steel
• Applications that require extended reach or deep-hole drilling
• Use with handheld or bench drills equipped to accept a hex shank

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 26 mm
• Overall length: 230 mm
• Material application: metalworking
• Shank type: hexagonal shank for secure clamping
• Tip feature: threaded guide blade for self-feeding and centering
• Packaging: supplied as one piece in a plastic case

How to use

Secure the hexagonal shank in a compatible drill chuck or quick-change adapter. Mark and, if necessary, center-punch the drilling location on the metal surface. Start drilling at a moderate speed to allow the threaded guide blade to engage and pull the bit into the material; use cutting lubricant appropriate for metal drilling to reduce heat and prolong tool life. Apply steady, even pressure and clear chips regularly when drilling deep holes to prevent clogging and overheating.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metal, use a suitable cutting lubricant, select a drill speed appropriate for the material thickness and hardness, and ensure the drill is held steady. Inspect the bit for wear before use and replace it if the cutting edge is damaged or dulled.
