Aircraft Extension Drill 29/64 in
The Chicago-Latrobe 11027 is a NAS-type aircraft extension drill built for deep-hole drilling in aerospace and maintenance applications. Its 135-degree split point reduces walk and starts cleanly in tough alloys. Machinists and technicians working on airframe structures will value the extended reach for restricted access points.
Thermals noise and power draw
High-speed steel construction with black oxide finish manages heat during prolonged drilling cycles in high-performance machining grades. The 135-degree point geometry lowers cutting forces, which reduces motor load and vibration on the power tool. Operators experience steadier cutting action with less chatter across the 4 3/16 in maximum drilling depth.
Build quality and connectors
The fractional-inch shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters, while the 4xD proportion balances rigidity and reach for 29/64 in holes. Black oxide coating adds corrosion resistance and helps retain lubricant during operation. Builders needing larger diameters or shorter stub-length drills will need a different tool.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 11027 drill bit in my drill chuck and what step is often missed?
Open the chuck fully, insert the shank completely, and tighten securely. The step often missed is ensuring the split point seats straight so the 135-degree angle cuts true.
What maintenance or replacement will the 11027 bit need after repeated use?
The high-speed steel cutting edges will dull over time. Resharpen the 135-degree split point to original geometry or replace the bit when drilling performance drops.
What limit appears first when using the 11027 bit continuously in deep holes?
Chip evacuation becomes the limiting factor at the 4 3/16 inch maximum drilling depth. The 28-degree helix angle moves chips, but deep cuts require frequent pecking to clear them.
