Dw1604 High-speed Split-point Steel Drill Bit, 3/16 X 12 In.

The DeWalt DW1604 is a high-speed steel drill bit designed for drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. Its 12-inch length provides extended reach for applications requiring deeper penetration, while the 3/16-inch diameter suits general drilling needs. The split-point design starts on contact and prevents the bit from walking, making it easier to maintain straight holes.

The black oxide coating resists wear, and the parabolic flute design improves chip ejection during metal and wood drilling. The 31-degree helix minimizes the over-aggressiveness of a true parabolic flute. This professional-grade bit is built for reliable, everyday use across multiple materials.
