Description

The DEWALT ACCESSORIES DWA5016 is a 1/4 inch twist drill bit engineered for trade-level performance in wood and metal applications. The 135-degree split point tip reduces walking on contact, allowing for accurate hole placement without center-punching. A black and gold oxide finish provides corrosion resistance and extends service life in demanding shop and field environments. The tapered core construction resists breakage under high-torque drilling loads, and the impact-ready hex shank is built to absorb radial torque from both standard power drills and impact drivers. Sold in a pack of 3.

This bit is suited for residential and light commercial applications where frequent drilling into wood framing, sheet metal, or mixed materials is required. The impact-ready hex shank design makes it compatible with quick-change chuck systems common on cordless drills and impact drivers used by carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and general contractors. The pack of 3 supports extended job site use without interruption.
