Drill bit STHOR 23393, straight shank, length 600 mm, pack 1

STHOR 23393 is a single straight-shank drill bit with a total length of 600 mm supplied as one piece. Designed for use in drills and drill stands that accept straight-shank accessories, this long-reach drill bit is intended for deep-hole and through drilling where extended reach is necessary. The tool is suitable for tasks in carpentry, metalworking and construction that require drilling in confined areas or through thick materials.

Advantages

The straight shank provides stable clamping in standard chucks and drill stands, while the 600 mm overall length enables access to deep or hard-to-reach drilling points. Supplied as a single unit, the bit is convenient for occasional long-reach operations without the need for extension rods. Its design allows compatibility with a variety of drill types and mounting setups commonly used in workshops and on construction sites.

Suitable for

• Deep-hole drilling in wood and soft metals where extended reach is required
• Through drilling in joinery and structural carpentry
• Drilling in metalworking for long-reach holes in sheet or profile parts
• On-site construction tasks that require accessing recessed or hard-to-reach points

Key specifications

• Straight shank design for standard chuck and drill-press compatibility
• Total length: 600 mm for extended reach
• Pack quantity: 1 piece
• Intended for deep-hole and through drilling applications

How to use

Select a drill or drill stand that accepts straight shank bits and ensure the chuck can securely clamp the shank length available. Mark the drilling point and, if necessary, create a pilot mark to prevent wandering. Clamp the workpiece securely and use appropriate drilling speed and feed for the material being drilled. Maintain steady pressure and periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips when drilling deep holes. After use, clean chips from the flute and store the bit in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. For metal drilling, apply cutting fluid to reduce heat and prolong tool life. Avoid side loads and bending forces on the long shank; if greater rigidity is required, use a support or a drill press to minimise runout and vibration.
