Makita D-07048 Wood Drill Bit 5 x 85 mm

The Makita Wood Drill Bit D-07048, 5 × 85 mm, is a one-piece spiral wood drill bit designed for drilling accurate holes in timber. A centring tip anchors the bit at the start of the cut, reducing wandering on smooth surfaces. This profile suits both routine hole-making and precise carpentry work where consistent entry points matter. The bit can be used on common softwoods and hardwoods. The flute design actively removes shavings during drilling, helping to maintain a steady cutting pace.

This bit is for rotary drilling only, boring smoothly into workpieces without the need for a hammer function. It fits both hand-held drills and stationary workshop presses thanks to its standard cylindrical shank. Debris travels up the flutes as the cut advances, reducing the chance of the shaft binding in deeper holes. The construction stays stable during continuous, repetitive work, and the bit integrates easily into an existing set of woodworking tools.

• 5 mm cutting diameter matches common dowel and hardware sizes for carpentry.
• 5 mm cylindrical shank fits standard keyless and keyed drill chucks.
• 85 mm overall length provides sufficient clearance for standard board thicknesses.
• 52 mm working length accommodates typical through-holes and partial-depth drilling.
• Stainless-steel finish helps users locate the bit quickly in a busy tool bag.
