Whether you are working on wood, plastics, masonry, metal or ceramics, this drill bit provides the precision and strength required for both professional and home projects. Featuring a 5 millimetre diameter and a total length of 100 millimetres, this drill bit is perfectly suited for small to medium diameter holes, making it ideal for detailed work and precision drilling tasks. The 50 millimetre working length allows for clean penetration without over-drilling, offering greater control over your work and reducing the chance of damage to the surrounding surface. The bit is engineered with a premium tungsten carbide tip, which provides superior hardness and wear resistance. This ensures that the cutting edges remain sharp even after repeated use on tough materials, minimising downtime for tool changes and extending the lifespan of the bit. The 1\/4 inch hexagon shank offers a secure fit in compatible drill chucks and quick change systems, reducing slippage during use and making bit changes faster and easier. This compatibility enhances workflow efficiency, especially when working on projects that require frequent switching between different drill bit sizes or types. Makita has designed this drill bit to work seamlessly with a range of building materials, including wood, plastics, brick, plasterboard, ceramic tiles, sand lime brick, aluminium and steel. Its multifunctional capability makes it an all in one solution for drilling into mixed materials without the need to swap bits for each type, which is especially useful in construction, renovation and installation work. The spiral flute design optimises debris and dust removal from the hole, preventing blockages and enabling smoother, faster drilling. This design also helps maintain consistent drilling pressure and reduces the risk of overheating, which can negatively affect both the drill bit and the material being worked on. The precision ground tip ensures excellent centring and prevents wandering, which is particularly important when starting holes on smooth or hard surfaces such as metal or glazed tiles. This accuracy translates into neater holes and less risk of surface damage. The distinctive finish is not just for appearance — it also reflects Makita high manufacturing standards, making the bit easy to identify in your toolbox and providing an extra layer of corrosion resistance. Suitable for tradespeople, contractors, and DIY users alike, this drill bit is perfect for tasks ranging from furniture assembly, fixture installation, electrical fittings and general repair work to more demanding construction jobs. It is built to withstand the rigours of frequent use while maintaining precise performance, making it an essential addition to any drill bit set. With the Makita TCT Drill Bit, you get a reliable, long lasting and versatile drilling accessory that can handle multiple tasks with ease, ensuring you achieve professional results every time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Makita","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53754495762698,"sku":"MKT594912","price":3.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/5080\/1162\/files\/1755085953-1707259223.jpg?v=1789645760","url":"https:\/\/waterloo-home-and-hardware.co.uk\/products\/makita-tct-drill-bit-silver-and-blue-d5mm-x-l100mm-e-14956","provider":"Waterloo Home \u0026 Hardware - The Really Useful Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
