Drill bit STANLEY STA52046 — 1.4 cm diameter, 160 mm length, 1 pc

STANLEY STA52046 drill bit — single-piece, 14 mm diameter and 160 mm overall length — is designed for mid-length drilling tasks with compatible drills. This bit is intended primarily for wood and other materials that match its cutting geometry, providing a straightforward solution for creating precise through-holes and pilot holes in general construction, repair, and installation work.

Advantages

The 14 mm diameter offers a balance between strength and hole size for common woodworking and installation needs, while the 160 mm length allows for drilling through thicker sections or reaching recessed areas. As a single-piece item, the bit is convenient to store and replace. Manufactured by STANLEY, it adheres to standard dimensions for compatibility with many drill chucks and provides consistent performance when used in appropriate applications.

Suitable for

• Drilling through wooden boards and beams
• Creating pilot holes for screws and fasteners
• Installation tasks requiring mid-depth holes (e.g., mounting hardware)
• General repair and carpentry work

How to use

Secure the STANLEY STA52046 drill bit in a compatible drill chuck, ensuring it is tightened and centered. Select an appropriate drill speed for the material being worked—lower speeds for hardwood, moderate speeds for softwood. Mark the drilling point and start with light pressure to establish the hole, then apply steady pressure until the desired depth is reached. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips and reduce heat buildup when drilling deep holes.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and hearing protection. For clean holes and longer tool life, ensure the bit is sharp and use proper drilling speeds for wood; avoid excessive side load to prevent breakage. If drilling through laminated or coated surfaces, consider a backing board to reduce splintering.
