Drill bit STANLEY STA52026 — 8 mm x 120 mm, twist drill, 1 pc

STANLEY STA52026 drill bit is an 8 mm diameter, 120 mm overall length twist drill supplied as a single piece. Designed for general-purpose drilling, this twist drill features a conventional spiral flute for efficient chip removal and is compatible with standard drill chucks. The bit is intended primarily for drilling in wood and for routine repair and construction tasks where a reliable, standard twist drill is required.

Advantages

The conventional spiral flute facilitates continuous chip evacuation, reducing clogging when working in wood. Supplied as a single, ready-to-use twist drill, the STA52026 is compatible with most standard drills and chucks, making it suitable for quick replacements and everyday use.

How to use

Secure the STA52026 twist drill in a compatible standard drill chuck and tighten firmly before operation. Mark the drilling position on the wood surface, use appropriate clamping to secure the workpiece, and select a suitable drilling speed for the wood type. Apply steady, even pressure and allow the spiral flute to evacuate chips; withdraw the bit periodically if long chips accumulate. After drilling, remove debris from the hole and inspect the bit for wear before subsequent use.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses and hearing protection. Match drill speed to the wood density and avoid excessive side load to prolong bit life. For deeper holes, periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips and reduce heat buildup.
