7/16 In X 12 In Black & Gold Oxide Drill Bit

Introducing the DeWalt 7/16 in x 12 in Black & Gold Oxide Drill Bit, built for demanding drilling tasks across metal, wood, and plastic. Its black-and-gold oxide coating shields the steel from corrosion, extending tool life in challenging environments and reducing maintenance. The tapered web geometry adds rigidity and helps resist breakage during heavy use, while maintaining a smooth chip flow. A 3-flat shank locks the bit securely in the chuck, minimizing spin-out for consistently accurate holes and reduced tool fatigue.

Benefits for your projects: The combination of a tough high-speed steel core, corrosion-resistant finish, and a precision split-point tip delivers dependable starts and clean holes, saving time on the job and reducing rework. Whether you're drilling through metal, wood, or plastic, this bit maintains performance from first pass to final bore.

• 7/16 in diameter & 12 in length: Long-reach design for deep drilling, enabling through-holes in metal, wood, and plastic.
• Corrosion-resistant black-and-gold oxide coating: Provides rust protection and extended tool life in tough work environments.
• Tapered web geometry for added durability: Strengthens critical sections to reduce breakage during heavy-duty drilling.
• 3-flat shank grip: Improves chuck bite and minimizes spin-out for reliable torque transfer.
• 135-degree split-point tip: Starts on contact and minimizes wandering for precise hole starts.

Why This Drill Bit Stands Out: Built to endure demanding tasks, it combines a robust high-speed steel core with a corrosion-resistant coating for longer life. The precise tip and secure shank keep alignment true, reducing rework and improving hole quality across metal, wood, and plastic. Whether tackling shop projects or professional jobs, this bit delivers reliable starts, clean holes, and consistent performance.
