Twist drill bit 6 mm, Wolfcraft 2731000, right-hand rotation, 1 pc

Wolfcraft twist drill bit, 6 mm diameter, model 2731000, is a single-piece right-hand rotation bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastics. Supplied as one piece in a hanging polybag, the bit is suitable for use in handheld drills and drill presses for standard workshop and DIY tasks that require clean round holes and reliable performance.

Advantages

The drill bit features a precision-ground cutting edge and a centre point for immediate material grip and reduced walking on start. Its single-piece construction provides stability and consistent concentricity during drilling. The zinc die-cast depth stop allows controlled, repeatable drilling depth when used for dowel holes and other tasks that require defined hole depth. The design supports right-hand rotation and is compatible with common drill chucks.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in wood, plywood, chipboard and fibreboard
• Drilling into metal and plastic for general fastening and assembly
• Pilot holes for screws and dowel pin joints in furniture assembly
• Use with handheld drills and drill presses for DIY and workshop projects

Key specifications

• Included accessory: integrated zinc die-cast depth stop for controlled drilling depth
• Packaging: single piece in hanging polybag

How to use

Fit the 6 mm twist drill bit securely into the drill chuck and tighten according to the drill manufacturer’s instructions. Set the integrated depth stop to the required drilling depth by loosening the clamping mechanism, positioning the stop, and retightening. Begin drilling at low speed to allow the centre point to locate, then increase speed appropriate to the material: lower speeds for metal, medium to higher speeds for wood and plastics. Apply steady axial pressure without forcing the bit to maintain straight, clean holes. After drilling, retract the bit while the drill is running briefly to clear chips, then stop the drill and remove the bit.

Usage recommendations

For precise dowel pin joints, use the drill bit together with compatible Wolfcraft accessories such as the universal dowel pin set, dowelmaster, dowel pin box or dowelling jig. Use cutting lubricant when drilling harder metals, and wear appropriate eye and hand protection. Replace the bit when cutting performance declines or when visible wear appears on the cutting edges.
