Cimco 208844 Twist Drill Bit

The Cimco 208844 twist drill bit is designed for precision drilling with right-hand rotation in a variety of common workshop materials. Manufactured as a single-piece tool, it delivers stable performance for clean, accurate holes in wood, metal and plastics. The drill geometry is optimized for general-purpose use, providing consistent centering and chip evacuation during standard drilling operations.

Advantages

This single-piece twist drill bit provides consistent runout and improved concentricity compared with multi-piece designs. The right-hand rotation geometry and balanced flute profile support efficient cutting and reliable chip removal. The solid construction enhances durability under normal drilling loads, and the tool is compatible with standard chucks and drill holders for easy integration into both handheld and bench drilling equipment.

Key specifications

How to use

Select an appropriate drill speed and feed rate for the material being drilled, and secure the workpiece to prevent movement. Install the twist drill bit in a properly tightened chuck or holder, centering the bit to minimize runout. Begin drilling with steady pressure, allowing the tool to cut without excessive force; withdraw periodically where deep holes are required to clear chips. For metals, use suitable cutting fluid to reduce heat buildup and extend tool life. After use, clean chips from the flutes and store the bit in a protective sleeve or holder to prevent damage to the cutting edges.

Recommendations

For best results, match drill speed and lubrication to the material: higher speeds for softer materials like wood and plastics, reduced speed and cutting fluid for harder metals. Inspect the cutting edges regularly and replace the bit when wear affects hole quality or concentricity.
