Dormer A17018.0 is an 18.0mm metal drill bit designed for creating clean, accurate holes where a reduced shank helps the bit clamp securely in drills with limited chuck capacity. Built for general-purpose drilling, it suits both hand-held and machine applications in workshop or site environments.
The A17018.0 uses a 1/2in parallel shank format with an HSS cutting body, offering a practical option when you need a larger drilling diameter while maintaining compatibility with common drill chucks.
Note: Supplied as a single drill bit (pack quantity: 1).
