Usage
The Bosch Ø10 235mm helical wood drill bit is designed for precise drilling in all types of hard and soft woods, including moist timber. Suitable for use with standard power drills, it is ideal for carpentry, framing, and construction applications.
Advantages
- Threaded self-centering tip enables accurate hole positioning and guides the bit during drilling.
- Large ground helical flute ensures continuous and efficient chip removal—even in damp wood.
- Hexagonal shank provides secure grip in the chuck to minimize slippage during operation.
- Cutter lip and pre-cutter design promote clean entry holes with reduced splintering.
- Designed for compatibility with most drills equipped with a 13 mm chuck; however, deep drilling may require drill power adjustment or torque limitation.[1][7]
Specifications
- Design: Helical (twist) profile with precision-ground flute; hexagonal shank for enhanced stability.[1][7]
- Materials/Technologies: High-quality steel construction increases lifespan; precision machining ensures consistent performance.[7]
- Sizing/Performance: Diameter: Ø10 mm, Total length: 235 mm,[1][7] Usable/work length approximately ~160–170 mm (common specification within this range).[7]
- Differentiating Features: Self-threading tip improves control and reduces walking; large fluting effective even in wet or resinous woods.[1][7]
How it works
The Bosch helical wood drill bit cuts into wood using its self-centering threaded tip to start the hole precisely. The sharp cutter lips remove material cleanly while deep spiral flutes transport chips away from the cutting edge, producing fast, accurate results suitable for both professional woodworking tasks and demanding DIY projects.
