Drill bit Proline 72226, metal, Ø22 mm, length 260 mm, 1 pc

Single metal drill bit Proline 72226 with a diameter of 22 mm and an overall length of 260 mm. Designed for drilling metal, this straight shank bit is intended for creating deep or through holes in steel and other ferrous materials. Supplied as one piece, it fits standard compatible drill chucks used in workshops, construction sites and maintenance operations.

Advantages

The drill bit combines a 22 mm cutting diameter with a 260 mm overall length to reach deeper workpieces without extension accessories. Its metal-working geometry is engineered to provide stable penetration in ferrous materials and to maintain hole accuracy over repeated use. Delivered as a single-piece tool, it simplifies selection and storage while remaining compatible with conventional drill chucks.

Suitable for

• Drilling deep or through holes in steel and other ferrous metals
• Workshop and machining tasks requiring extended reach
• On-site maintenance and construction metalworking
• Preparation of holes for bolts, rivets or pipe passages

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 22 mm
• Overall length: 260 mm
• Material application: metal / ferrous materials
• Quantity: 1 piece
• Shank type: straight shank for standard chucks

How to use

Secure the Proline 72226 drill bit in a compatible drill chuck and clamp the workpiece to prevent movement. Select appropriate rotational speed and feed rate for metal drilling, typically lower speeds for large diameters and hard materials. Use cutting lubricant to reduce heat and extend tool life. Apply steady pressure and clear chips periodically to maintain a clean cutting zone and consistent hole quality.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling steel and other ferrous metals, use cutting fluid, start at a moderate speed to establish the hole, and gradually increase feed as the bit advances. Inspect the bit before use for signs of wear and replace if the cutting edges are blunt or damaged.
