Drill bit YATO YT-33022 — single-piece general-purpose metal/wood drilling bit

YATO YT-33022 — single-piece general-purpose metal/wood drilling bit designed for use with hand drills and drill presses. Supplied as one replaceable cutting tip, this straight-shank bit is intended for routine drilling tasks in materials such as steel, non-ferrous metals and common wood types. It is suitable for repair, maintenance and light construction work where a standard rotary drill accessory is required.

Advantages

The drill bit provides a single-piece construction for straightforward installation and replacement. Its straight shank ensures compatibility with standard chucks, and the geometry is intended to produce reliable, centered holes in a variety of materials. The design balances metal and wood drilling capability for general-purpose use without specialized tooling requirements.

Suitable for

• Drilling round holes in metal components for maintenance and repair
• Creating pilot and through-holes in wood and wood-based panels
• Everyday workshop tasks with hand drills and machine drills

Key specifications

• Design: single-piece, straight-shank drill bit suitable for manual and machine drilling
• Materials: intended for use in metal (including steel and non-ferrous metals) and common wood types
• Compatibility: standard drill chucks that accept straight shank bits

How to use

Select a drill speed appropriate for the material being worked: lower speeds for metal, higher speeds for wood. Secure the workpiece and clamp if necessary to prevent movement. Insert the straight shank fully into the drill chuck and tighten securely. Start drilling with light pressure to establish a centered entry, then apply steady pressure and allow the bit to cut at its own rate. Withdraw periodically when drilling deep holes to clear chips and reduce heat buildup.

Usage recommendations

Use cutting fluid or coolant when drilling metals to extend bit life and improve cut quality. For wood, ensure the bit is sharp and use support under thin panels to prevent splintering. Replace the bit if wear or damage causes poor centering or inefficient cutting.
