Drill bit STANLEY STA50060 — 5.5 mm diameter, 93 mm length, 1 pc

STANLEY STA50060 drill bit — single 5.5 mm diameter, 93 mm overall length, intended for general-purpose drilling tasks in metal and other compatible materials. This single-piece bit is designed for use with standard hand drills and drill presses that accept its shank size; it offers a specific length and diameter combination useful for maintenance, repair and precision drilling where a 5.5 mm hole is required. The product name and basic dimensions are naturally included for easy identification when selecting bits for particular applications.

Advantages

The 5.5 mm diameter and 93 mm length provide reach and control for intermediate-depth holes while maintaining rigidity during drilling.

How to use

Secure the drill bit in a compatible drill chuck, ensuring the shank is clamped firmly and runs true. Select an appropriate drilling speed and coolant or lubrication if working with metal to reduce heat and extend tool life. Start drilling with light pressure to establish the hole, then increase steady pressure until the required depth is reached. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips and prevent clogging, and inspect the bit for wear or damage before reuse.

Usage recommendations

Use cutting fluid or lubrication when drilling metal, match drill speed to material hardness, and wear appropriate eye and hand protection. Replace the bit if it becomes dull or chipped to maintain hole quality and safety.
