If they are self tapping screws, the drill bit is as thick as the solid barrel of the screw. If you want the screw to go through easily to have a nut on the other side, then the drill bit is slightly larger than thread size.
Drill bits and screws are not the same and cannot be converted. vido produces drill bits with high quality, exported overseas and loved by the public. If you want to buy a drill, you can go to VIDO's official website to check.
Tek screws are a name brand type of self drilling screws. They can also be called drill bit screws and self tapping screws. Phillips and other companies manufacture these as well.
I use a 3/16 drill bit for that.
A drill bit size of .376 inches is equivalent to a 3/8 inch drill bit, which is slightly smaller than 3/8 inch (0.375 inches) and larger than 13/32 inch (0.40625 inches). In metric terms, this is approximately 9.55 mm. It’s important to choose the right drill bit size based on the specific requirements of your project.
A tek screw is a screw that has a drill bit tip for a point rather than coming to a sharp point like a needle. These are self-drilling screws and need no pilot hole. Tek is a brand name for self-drilling screws as Kleenex is a brand name for nose tissue. self-drilling screws are similar to sheet metal screws but have a drill point instead of coming to a sharp point and will drill their own hole. This eliminates the need to pre-drill a pilot hole.
To determine the correct drill bit size for a project, you should refer to the instructions or specifications provided for the project. Additionally, you can use a drill bit sizing chart or measure the diameter of the screws or fasteners you will be using to select the appropriate drill bit size.
It's one that has a point of a basic screw size, and a bit further up it widens to the size of that screws head, so you can make a countersink hole with the same drill.
To countersink screws effectively using a drill bit, follow these steps: Choose a drill bit that matches the size of the screw head. Drill a pilot hole for the screw. Switch to a countersink bit and drill a wider hole around the pilot hole to create a recess for the screw head. Insert the screw into the countersunk hole.
Depends which screws you are going to use. I usually use the #6 screws that come with blinds. They need no pre-drilling.
A screw extractor drill bit is best for removing stripped screws.
To effectively use a drill bit to sink screws into a surface, follow these steps: Choose the appropriate drill bit size for the screw you are using. Drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw size to prevent splitting the surface. Attach the screw to the drill bit and insert it into the pilot hole. Use the drill to drive the screw into the surface, applying steady pressure. Stop when the screw is flush with the surface to avoid over-tightening.
The drill size for self tapping screws is the size of the barrel. ie,the bit that forms the body of the screws inside the thread. If you are using 1/8 screws then the body would be about 3/32. If I'm doing an unfamiliar size, I always experiment with 2-3 for best size. -An easier way is to simply use 'drill tipped screws' -These are available at an drywall wholesaler.

That size is 8-32. The drill bit for a clearance hole is 11/64, or a #17 drill bit.
The most reliable drill bit to screw size chart for accurate and efficient screwing operations is the one provided by the manufacturer of the screws you are using.
The equivalent size of an 11/32 drill bit in the metric measurement system is approximately 8.73 millimeters.
The equivalent size of a 15/64 drill bit in the metric measurement system is approximately 5.95 millimeters.
