Dewalt Accessories DWA1210 Cobalt Split Point Drill Bit 5/32 in

Product Description

The DEWALT ACCESSORIES DWA1210 is a cobalt split point drill bit engineered for heavy-duty metal and wood drilling applications. At 5/32 inches in diameter, this bit uses a cobalt construction that delivers up to four times the service life compared to standard black oxide bits. The split point tip engages the workpiece immediately on contact, eliminating walking and reducing the need for a center punch. This bit is suited for licensed tradespeople and experienced DIYers who regularly drill through stainless steel, heavy steel, and structural materials. Each order includes five bits.

The DWA1210 is designed for demanding drilling tasks in metal fabrication, structural steel work, and general construction. Its cobalt composition makes it especially effective when cutting through stainless steel and heavy steel stock such as I-beams. The split point geometry reduces thrust required at the drill, which matters when working with a handheld drill or drill press in tight or overhead positions. This bit fits any standard drill chuck accepting 5/32 inch shanks.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist, pipefitter, ironworker, or general tradesperson typically installs and operates this bit. Secure the workpiece before drilling and use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling stainless or heavy steel to reduce heat buildup and extend bit life. Always wear eye protection and ensure the drill is powered off before inserting or removing the bit from the chuck. Follow applicable OSHA and site safety guidelines when working with rotating tools.
