DRILL HSS 16.5MM 135DEG 1/CARD REDUCED SHANK INDUSTRIAL BIT
Features
- 16.5 mm diameter — perfect for large clearance or through-holes.
- 135° split point self-centers for fast starts and precision drilling.
- Reduced shank fits smaller-capacity 13 mm chucks.
- HSS construction for excellent wear resistance and edge life.
- Polished twist flutes for smooth chip removal and cooler cutting.
Benefits
- Efficient: starts quickly without pilot holes.
- Versatile: drills metals, alloys, plastics and non-ferrous materials.
- Compatible: reduced shank allows larger holes using standard drill chucks.
Extra Information
- Use cutting fluid when drilling steel or harder alloys to minimize friction.
- Reduce drill speed for metals and increase for softer materials.
- Clean chips frequently to avoid heat buildup or bit binding.
Pro Tip
- Use a center punch to mark your start point — this helps the split point locate accurately.
- For deep holes, peck-drill by withdrawing the bit periodically to clear chips and cool the cutting edge.
