Auger drill bit Yato YT-4362 5 mm 1 pc

The Yato YT-4362 auger drill bit with a 5 mm diameter is designed for accurate and efficient wood drilling. This single-piece bit features a spiral flute and a screw tip geometry that facilitate fast chip removal and steady feed into the workpiece, enabling precise hole placement for joinery, doweling, and general-purpose woodworking tasks.

Advantages

The auger geometry ensures consistent chip evacuation and reduced clogging during prolonged use. A hardened cutting edge maintains sharpness over multiple drilling operations, while the compact 5 mm diameter provides control for fine and detail work. Its single-piece construction offers durability and simple handling in handheld drills and drill presses.

Suitable for

• Drilling clean, straight holes in soft and hardwoods
• Joinery tasks such as dowel holes and furniture assembly
• On-site carpentry and renovation work requiring small-diameter holes
• Use with hand-held electric drills and drill presses for precision work

Key specifications

• Type: auger drill bit with spiral flute and screw tip
• Diameter: 5 mm
• Quantity: 1 piece
• Intended material: wood and wood-based materials
• Construction: single-piece hardened cutting edge

How to use

Secure the auger bit in the drill chuck and set an appropriate speed for the wood species and diameter. Position the screw tip at the desired start point and apply steady pressure; the screw tip will pull the bit into the material, allowing controlled feed. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips if drilling deep holes. After use, clean the flute and store the bit in a protective case or rack to preserve the cutting edge.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use moderate drill speeds and steady pressure to avoid overheating and to preserve the cutting edge. Pre-marking and using a center punch or pilot spot can improve initial alignment for precise hole placement.
