1/2" Diameter Reduced-Shank Drill Bits
The shank has a smaller diameter than the tip, allowing you to drill large holes with machines that have small-capacity chucks. Also known as Silver and Deming bits, they have a 1/2” diameter shank.
Drill bits with flats on shank have three flat sides to prevent the bit from slipping in the drill chuck.

Cobalt Steel 3/4" Diameter Reduced-Shank Drill Bits
With better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel, these cobalt steel bits can run up to 25% faster and have a longer tool life. The shank has a smaller diameter than the tip, allowing you to drill large holes with machines that have small-capacity chucks. A split point keeps the bit centered without a pilot hole.

Fast-Cutting Smooth-Finish Drill Bits for Wood
Multiple outlining teeth bore clean, flat-bottom holes without chipping or splintering your surface—even when cutting across the grain. These bits are excellent for boring straight holes, overlapping holes, and holes on close centers in soft wood, veneer, and laminates. The center guide point prevents the bit from wandering. Also known as multispur bits or Forstner bits.
