This bit is designed for 11mm hex shank arbours. It will not work in a standard drill chuck without the corresponding arbour assembly.
It is constructed from High-Speed Steel (HSS-G), which is known for its hardness and resistance to heat.
No, this specific pilot bit is designed for hole saws ranging from 32mm to 210mm.
If the bit takes significantly longer to pierce the material or if the tip appears visibly rounded/dull, it should be replaced.
This is an HSS-G bit intended for wood, plastic, and metal; it is not designed for hammer drilling in brick or concrete.
Ensure the grub screw is tightened securely against the flat side of the 11mm hex shank.
Reduce your drilling speed and apply cutting fluid; check that the bit flutes are not clogged with debris.
Ensure the pilot bit extends sufficiently beyond the hole saw teeth and apply firm, steady pressure initially.
To set up the bit, ensure your arbour is clean and free of debris. Slide the 11mm hex shank into the arbour and tighten the grub screw firmly against the flat section of the shank to prevent it from vibrating loose.
Compatibility: This model is strictly intended for 11mm hex shank arbour systems and hole saws between 32mm and 210mm.
Care: To prolong the life of the bit, avoid overheating. Use a light cutting oil when drilling through metal to reduce friction, and periodically remove wood shavings or swarf from the bit flutes to prevent clogging.
