There are two different types of tools to do this. Ask for a 'spade bit' or 'hole saw' at the hardware store. Either one is used with an ordinary power drill. When cutting through plastic with power tools, do not run the tool at maximum speed as the friction may melt the plastic and make the cut edge less clean.
It is not a drill bit, it is called a Tap. You drill a hole slightly smaller than the Tap and then screw it into the hole.
That is a drill bit designed to remove partial drill bits that have broken in a hole
Yes, but not with the usual drill bit. Drilling a hole in glass is accomplished with an abrasive that actually wears a hole through the glass.
A tool specifically designed for creating holes is called a drill. It is commonly used for boring holes in various materials such as wood, metal, or plastic. The type of drill bit attached to the drill will determine the size and depth of the hole.
That size is 8-32. The drill bit for a clearance hole is 11/64, or a #17 drill bit.
Surprisingly enough- a 6 mm drill bit, or if you don't have one,1/4 drill bit will do.
Masonry refers to brick and cement. If you have to drill a hole in that kind of material, just put the masonry bit in your drill, and you can drill the hole in exactly the same way that you would drill a hole in wood, it works the same way.
you can cut a hole in wood using a special drill attachment. alternatively you could drill a hole then cut a hole with a jigsaw
The rotating action of the drill bit makes the hole.
When you drill a hole in a wall, you are doing work by transferring energy to the drill bit. The amount of work done is equal to the force applied multiplied by the distance the drill bit moves into the wall. This work is necessary to create the hole by breaking through the wall material.
Your meaning is not clear. - If you are going to tap the threads in, use a 7/32 drill bit. If you want a hole that this bolt will slip through, use a 9/32 drill bit.
