Wera 848 Hex Shank HSS Drill Bit

The Wera 848 HSS Metal Twist Drill Bit in 8mm is a heavy-duty size suited to larger clearance holes, M8 bolt clearances, structural metalwork, and demanding fabrication tasks across steel, aluminium, and other metals. At this diameter, the split point tip is especially important, ensuring the bit centres and bites cleanly rather than wandering under the increased cutting forces involved. The HSS body benefits from finely-tuned material elasticity that resists torsional stress without sacrificing rigidity, whilst viscous tempering ensures the cutting edges maintain their sharpness through extended periods of heavy use. The ¼" hex shank provides a secure, high-torque connection to DIN ISO 1173-D 6.3 quick-release holders. Features and Benefits: • HSS with split point for accurate, controlled entry at larger diameters • Finely-tuned elasticity absorbs stress and extends service life • Viscous-tempered for sustained performance under heavy load • ¼" hex shank for reliable, high-torque power transfer • Excellent concentricity for precise, clean holes Contents: 848 HSS Metal Twist Drill Bits, 8 x 51mm Specifications: Diameter: 8mm Overall Length: 51mm Drive: ¼" Hex (DIN ISO 1173-D 6.3)
