WOOD DRILL BIT 8X300MM BCM8X3
KSh 500.00
The Wood Drill Bit 8 × 300 mm BCM8×3 is a long‑reach woodworking bit designed for drilling deep, clean holes in timber and other softwood materials. It features sharp cutting edges and spiral flutes for efficient chip removal. Suitable for carpenters, fundis, and woodworkers.
What This Product Is and How It Works
The Wood Drill Bit 8 × 300 mm BCM8×3 is a wood‑specific drill bit with an extended length for deeper penetration. Its cutting geometry and spiral flutes enable the bit to slice through wood fibres effectively and evacuate chips rapidly, resulting in smooth holes with minimal tear‑out. This design supports drilling tasks where standard‑length bits may not reach.
The 8 mm diameter provides a common clearance hole size for fasteners, dowels, and utility runs in woodwork.
Material Quality, Durability and Environmental Performance
This bit is typically manufactured from high‑speed steel (HSS) or equivalent durable steel with appropriate heat treatment. The choice of material provides a balance of toughness and edge retention for sustained wood drilling performance.
Under typical Kenyan site and workshop conditions — moderate humidity, dust, and temperature variation — the bit performs consistently when used with proper drilling technique and controlled feed pressure.
Installation, Handling and Compatibility
Use the wood drill bit with electric or cordless drills fitted with keyed or keyless chucks capable of securely holding long‑shank bits. Align the bit with the marked hole position, and apply steady downward pressure while maintaining straight alignment. Avoid forcing the bit sideways to reduce chatter and prolong bit life.
Wear eye protection and suitable personal protective equipment to guard against flying wood chips. This bit is designed for softwood, hardwood, plywood, and similar wood materials, and is not intended for metal or masonry applications.
Typical Applications in Kenya
This drill bit is widely used for deep hole drilling in woodworking and construction projects. Typical applications include drilling holes for dowels, fasteners, cabinet fittings, door and window frame assemblies, and utility runs through timber studs and boards.
Carpenters, fundis, joiners, and DIY homeowners commonly use this bit in residential and commercial woodworking tasks. For related drilling tools and accessories, customers can browse the full range in our Shop or explore the Power Tool Accessories Category.
