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 1/2" 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. Also known as Silver and Deming bits, they have a 1/2” diameter shank.
Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated drill bits last longer and can drill at higher speeds than uncoated drill bits.

Carbide-Tipped 1/2" Diameter Reduced-Shank Drill Bits

More wear resistant than cobalt steel and high-speed steel, these carbide-tipped bits maintain a sharper, harder edge at high temperatures. 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.

Combination Drill Bit/Pipe and Conduit Thread Taps

Drill and thread holes for pipe and conduit without switching tools. Made of uncoated high-speed steel, these tools are for use on most metal and plastic. Their right-hand spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole. With a square shank, they're compatible with tap wrenches and tap holders for drill presses and milling machines. All have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they're suitable for start-to-finish tapping of through holes.

Helical Inserts with Installation Tools

Inserts come with a through-hole tap and installation tool. Also known as Heli-Coil inserts, they have coils that expand once installed to securely anchor the insert. All have a prong for ease of installation. An installation tool grips the prong and reduces the coil diameter, enabling the insert to fit in tapped holes. Remove the prong to insert the screw.
