Import BDNA-KP86132 Extra Length Drill Bit 3/16 in Hss

Product Description

The IMPORT BDNA-KP86132 is an extra length high-speed steel drill bit designed for drilling applications that require extended reach beyond standard bit lengths. With a 3/16 inch diameter and an 8 inch overall length, this bit gives tradespeople the clearance needed to reach deep or obstructed bore locations. The 118-degree standard point angle and web-thinned tip reduce thrust and improve center starting. An oxide finish provides basic corrosion resistance and helps reduce friction at the cutting face. The right-hand spiral flute design channels chips efficiently out of the hole during drilling.

This bit suits general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and similar materials on the job site or in the shop. The extended 8 inch overall length and 5.5 inch flute length make it particularly useful in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical rough-in work where bits must pass through deep framing members, sheet metal enclosures, or stacked structural assemblies. It fits standard drill chucks that accept a straight cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and operated by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general tradespeople using portable drills or drill presses. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck before use and confirm the bit runs true before applying feed pressure. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Always wear eye protection and follow applicable safety codes for rotating cutting tools.
