Drill bit STHOR 23403, straight shank, length 600 mm, pack 1

The STHOR 23403 drill bit is a long-reach straight-shank drilling tool with a total length of 600 mm supplied as a single unit per pack. It is designed for applications that require extended access into deep or hard-to-reach workpieces and is compatible with chucks and holders that accept straight-shank bits. The specification focuses on providing extra reach while maintaining compatibility with common manual and powered drilling equipment used in construction, carpentry and metalworking.

Advantages

This straight-shank drill bit offers extended length for deep-hole work without the need for extensions or adapters. Its single-piece supply allows users to purchase only what is needed for specific tasks. The straight shank ensures straightforward mounting in compatible drill chucks and holders, and the 600 mm length increases versatility for jobs where standard-length bits cannot reach.

Suitable for

• Drilling deep holes in wood and timber structures
• Accessing recessed or hard-to-reach drilling points in construction
• Long-reach metalworking tasks with appropriate drill speeds and cooling
• Installation tasks requiring penetration through thick panels or assemblies

Key specifications

• Overall length: 600 mm
• Shank type: straight shank for standard chucks and holders
• Pack quantity: 1 piece
• Intended use: manual and powered drilling equipment

How to use

Select a compatible drill or holder that accepts straight-shank bits and securely clamp the STHOR 23403 drill bit in the chuck. Set the drill speed and feed rate appropriate to the material being drilled; reduce speed for metal and increase speed for softer woods, observing manufacturer guidance for the drill and bit type. When drilling deep holes, periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips and allow cooling, and apply cutting fluid or coolant when working with metal to prolong tool life. Ensure the workpiece is firmly secured and use appropriate personal protective equipment.

Usage recommendations

Use lower speeds and steady pressure for metal drilling, and keep the bit clear of accumulated chips during long-reach operations. Inspect the shank and cutting edges before use to ensure proper seating and safe operation.
