Drill Bit Yato YT-3274 High Speed Steel 6mm

The Yato YT-3274 High Speed Steel 6mm drill bit is engineered for reliable performance across metal, wood and plastic. Manufactured from high-speed steel, this 6mm diameter bit balances hardness and toughness to deliver accurate holes and consistent cutting action. The bit is intended for professional and workshop use where repeatable precision and durability are required.

Advantages

This high-speed steel drill bit offers wear resistance and heat tolerance that help maintain cutting edge geometry during extended use. Its 6mm diameter provides a common size for through holes, pilot holes and dowel fittings. The ground tip and flutes are designed to evacuate chips efficiently, reducing friction and improving hole quality. The construction supports consistent concentricity to help achieve accurate hole placement.

Suitable for

• Drilling metal sheets, plates and structural components
• Creating holes in hardwoods and softwoods
• Working with plastics and composite materials
• General workshop and construction drilling tasks

Key specifications

• Material: High-speed steel (HSS)
• Diameter: 6 mm
• Intended materials: Metal, wood, plastic
• Tip style: Ground point for efficient centering and cutting
• Flute design: Spiral flutes for chip evacuation

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the chuck of a handheld drill or drill press ensuring firm clamping and correct alignment. Select an appropriate drilling speed for the work material—lower speeds for harder metals and higher speeds for wood and plastics. Use cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling metals to reduce heat and extend bit life. Apply steady feed pressure without forcing the bit; allow the cutting edges to remove material and periodically clear chips from the hole.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling metal, use a suitable cutting lubricant and moderate speed. When drilling wood or plastic, higher speeds and reduced pressure help maintain clean edges. Inspect the bit regularly for wear or bluntness and replace when cutting performance declines to avoid oversized or rough holes.
