Drill bit Proline 72460 — 24 mm diameter, 600 mm length, metal, 1 pc

Proline 72460 is a single metal drill bit with a 24 mm diameter and a 600 mm overall length, designed for drilling into metal where extended reach is required. The long-shank configuration allows access to deep-hole and through-hole applications in workshop and industrial settings. Supplied as one piece, this drill bit fits compatible drill chucks and holders used in professional drilling equipment.

Advantages

The bit's 24 mm diameter and 600 mm length provide deep-reach capability for tasks that standard-length bits cannot complete. Manufactured for metal drilling, its geometry supports stable cutting and consistent bore size during prolonged use. Supplied singly, the bit is easy to install and replace in common drill chucks and holders used in industrial and workshop environments.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Deep-hole drilling in metal components
• Through-hole drilling where extended reach is needed
• Workshop and industrial metal fabrication
• Repairs and maintenance requiring long-reach drilling

Key specifications

• Diameter: 24 mm
• Overall length: 600 mm
• Material suitability: metal
• Quantity: 1 piece
• Shank type: long shank for extended reach

How to use

Secure the drill bit in a compatible drill chuck or holder according to the drill manufacturer's torque and clamping recommendations. Position the workpiece firmly and, if possible, use a center punch to mark the starting point. Start drilling at low speed to establish the bore, then increase speed and feed appropriate to the metal type and drill size while applying steady axial pressure. Use cutting fluid or coolant as appropriate for the metal being drilled to reduce heat and preserve the bit's cutting edge. After drilling, retract the bit carefully to clear chips and inspect the bore for dimensional accuracy.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metal with the Proline 72460, use suitable cutting fluid, ensure the workpiece is securely clamped, and select drill speeds and feed rates recommended for a 24 mm metal drill to minimise wear and maintain bore quality.
