DRILL HSS 17.5MM 135DEG 1/CARD REDUCED SHANK INDUSTRIAL BIT
Features
- 17.5 mm cutting diameter for large, accurate boreholes.
- 135° split point tip ensures fast starts without walking or skidding.
- Reduced shank enables compatibility with standard 13 mm drill chucks.
- HSS construction offers excellent strength, wear resistance and sharpness.
- Optimized flute geometry ensures smooth chip evacuation and cooler operation.
Benefits
- Accuracy: self-centering tip eliminates the need for pilot holes.
- Durability: high-speed steel resists dulling and heat buildup.
- Versatility: ideal for ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
Extra Information
- Use a quality cutting oil or lubricant when drilling metals to extend bit life.
- Operate at lower speeds on hard materials; faster for softer substrates.
- Always verify that the reduced shank is properly seated and tightened in the chuck.
Pro Tip
- Use a center punch on metal to accurately guide the split-point tip.
- For deep holes, use peck drilling — retract periodically to clear chips and cool the bit.
