Drill bit Proline 76165P — metal, Ø 16.5 mm, length 184 mm, 1 pc

Single Proline 76165P metal drill bit with a 16.5 mm diameter and 184 mm overall length. Made from HSS refined steel and compatible with DIN 338, this solid drill bit is intended for drilling through various metals in workshop and construction environments. The tool features a 13 mm relief and is supplied in a PVC case as a single unit, suitable for use with drills that accept the corresponding shank and standard metalworking applications.

Advantages

The Proline 76165P drill bit combines HSS refined steel construction with DIN 338 compatibility to deliver reliable cutting performance and longer wear life compared with standard carbon bits. The specified 13 mm relief reduces friction and improves chip evacuation during drilling in metal, while the 184 mm overall length provides reach for deeper holes. Supplied in a PVC case, the bit is protected during storage and transport.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in steel and ferrous metals
• Workshop and maintenance tasks requiring a 16.5 mm hole
• Construction and installation work with metal components
• Use with standard electric and cordless drills that accept the shank type

Key specifications

• Material: HSS refined steel
• Diameter: 16.5 mm
• Overall length: 184 mm
• Relief (flute length): 13 mm
• Standards compatibility: DIN 338
• Packaging: single piece in PVC case

How to use

Secure the bit in the drill chuck so it is centered and tightened. Select an appropriate drill speed for HSS bits and the metal being drilled, apply steady feed pressure, and start drilling with light contact to establish the pilot. Use cutting fluid or lubricant for improved performance and cooling when drilling harder metals. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips and prevent clogging in the relief area. After use, clean and store the bit in its PVC case to protect the cutting edges.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use cutting fluid when drilling steel or stainless alloys, choose lower speeds for harder materials, and ensure the drill is held perpendicular to the workpiece to maintain hole accuracy and extend tool life.
