DEWALT EXTREME Impact Step Drill Bit 6mm-12mm 1mm Steps DEWDT5026-QZ

Description

High-Performance Drilling for Faster, Cleaner Results on Site

When speed and precision matter, this DEWALT EXTREME Impact Step Drill Bit is built to keep trades moving. Designed for drilling and enlarging holes from 6mm to 12mm in thin sheet metal up to 3mm thick, it delivers fast, controlled cutting across multiple hole sizes without the need to swap bits constantly.

The optimised step geometry helps the bit cut through material faster while maintaining clean, circular holes. Specially ground shoulder cutters help reduce breakout and deliver smooth finishes, making it ideal for electrical fit-offs, switchboard work, and metal fabrication tasks where accuracy counts.

A titanium coating enhances wear resistance and corrosion protection, delivering up to 2X longer life compared to standard black oxide bits. Combined with DEWALT’s impact-rated design, this bit is built to handle demanding trade environments where durability and performance can’t be compromised.

Built for Reliability, Accuracy & Compliance on Every Job

On-site reliability is critical for electricians and contractors working under tight deadlines, and this step drill bit is engineered to reduce errors and rework. The precision-ground cutting edges help prevent walking at the start of drilling, giving you better control when working on metal panels, enclosures, and electrical housings.

The consistent step increments from 6mm through to 12mm allow accurate hole sizing in a single tool, reducing tool changes and keeping work efficient. Whether you’re working in commercial fit-outs, maintenance, or new installations, the stable cutting action supports cleaner, more compliant results across repetitive drilling tasks.

The titanium coating not only extends tool life but also helps maintain cutting performance over time, reducing downtime caused by worn-out bits. For licensed electricians who rely on consistent results across multiple projects, this is a dependable workshop and site essential.

Trade-Focused Design for Efficiency, Speed & Convenience

Designed with productivity in mind, this DEWALT step drill bit features a quick-change 6.35mm hex shank, allowing fast accessory swaps in impact drivers and drill drivers. This reduces downtime between tasks and keeps workflows moving efficiently on busy job sites.

Ideal for electricians and contractors who regularly work on electrical enclosures, switchboards, and sheet metal installations, it eliminates the need for multiple drill bits when working across different hole sizes. One tool handles multiple applications, helping streamline toolkits and reduce carry weight.

Whether you’re on residential rough-ins or large-scale commercial projects, this bit is built for trades who need reliable performance without slowing down. It’s a practical addition to any professional drilling setup where speed, consistency, and durability are essential.
