Why are long drill bits so hard to find?
For example this 3mm HSS cobalt, 98mm long. Couldn't find a 4mm that length at all!
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351783054078 Surely plenty folk need to drill a hole through something thick before putting a screw right through and into the wood behind? |

"installer" bits of roughly 18 inch length are COMMON in smaller sizes -3/16 to 3/8 sort of range - - some with a hole in the web at the tip for attaching a wire or pull cord to pull it through the hole. |

Bolted on with gutter bolts. |

I need 60mm for the cobalt drill to make the hole, plus some extra length as the drill chuck can't get right up against the framework (due to the window framing). And even longer when I want to get into the wall with the masonry bit, having gone through the frame. |

For example this 3mm HSS cobalt, 98mm long.* Couldn't find a 4mm that length at all! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351783054078 Surely plenty folk need to drill a hole through something thick before putting a screw right through and into the wood behind? I googled long HSS and found lots. Bought some. Very very useful. Bill |
