DW1606 Split Point Drill Bit, Black Oxide, 1/4 X 12 In.

The DeWalt DW1606 is a 1/4-inch diameter drill bit, 12 inches in overall length, designed for drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. The black oxide coating provides greater wear resistance and reduces friction during use, extending the bit's service life and improving performance across repeated drilling tasks.

The split-point design prevents the bit from wandering on the workpiece and allows the bit to start drilling on contact. The 31-degree helix angle moderates aggressiveness for smoother drilling action. The parabolic flute design improves chip ejection in both metal and wood drilling applications, keeping the flutes clear and maintaining drilling efficiency throughout the job.
