## Long description

YATO YT-44868 drill bit supplied as a single piece for use with drills that accept a standard shank. Made from high-speed steel and designed for drilling in high-grade stainless steel (INOX), structural steel and cold-rolled steel. The 1/4" hex (6.3 mm) shank fits many quick-change and standard chucks, making the bit suitable as a replacement or spare for workshop and DIY tasks.
Advantages
The HSS 6542 material offers increased cutting speed and retains edge geometry to resist dulling during repeated use. A 135° split-point tip ensures accurate centring and starts drilling without the need for prior scoring. Ground flutes and edges manufactured to DiN 338 tolerances provide precise hole dimensions, while improved surface finish lowers friction and reduces buildup of swarf and filings. Constructed from a single piece of steel for enhanced strength and durability.
Suitable for
Drilling high-grade stainless steel (INOX)
Drilling structural steel
Drilling cold-rolled steel
Workshop repairs and maintenance
DIY metalworking tasks
Key specifications
Material: high-speed steel (HSS 6542)
Tip geometry: split point, 135° apex angle
Shank type and size: 1/4" hex (6.3 mm)
Manufacturing standard: ground to DiN 338 tolerances
How to use
Install the bit into a compatible drill chuck or quick-change adaptor, securing the 1/4" hex shank firmly. Select appropriate speed and feed for the steel being drilled—use lower speeds and steady pressure for hard stainless steels to avoid overheating. Use cutting lubricant when drilling hardened or stainless steels to improve heat dissipation and prolong bit life. Withdraw the bit occasionally to clear chips and allow cooling.
Usage recommendations
For best results when drilling INOX and other hard steels, use cutting fluid, moderate speed, and constant pressure. Replace the bit when signs of significant wear or chipping appear to maintain hole quality and operator safety.
