This 3/16″ high speed steel bit cuts clean holes in metal, wood, and most materials you’ll run into around the farm. It’s the kind of bit you reach for when you need a precise hole without the headache of a dull or cheap bit that wanders.

- Standard 118-degree point angle cuts efficiently in most materials
- Precision ground for straight, clean holes every time
- Right-hand spiral flutes clear chips effectively to prevent binding
Built for Real Farm Work
This bit handles everything from drilling mounting holes in steel brackets to starting holes for lag bolts in barn timbers. The 3/16″ size is perfect for pilot holes before tapping threads, mounting smaller hardware, or any job where you need a clean, accurate hole. It fits standard drill chucks and works with both cordless and corded drills.
Made to Last
High speed steel construction means this bit can handle the heat generated when drilling metal without losing its edge. The precision grinding ensures it cuts true and doesn’t walk around on you like cheaper bits tend to do. It’ll hold up to regular shop use and keep cutting clean holes job after job.
Good to Know
For best results drilling metal, use cutting oil or even a drop of motor oil to keep the bit cool and extend its life. Start with light pressure and let the bit do the work—pushing too hard just dulls the cutting edges faster. Keep it sharp with a few light touches on a grinding wheel when needed.
