Questions about this item
What does the 135 degree split point do for drilling?
The 135 degree split point reduces walking and starts holes faster in metal without a centre punch.
What shank size fits a standard three-jaw chuck for this bit?
The jobber length shank matches the drill diameter of .2570 inches so it fits any chuck that accepts that size.
How do I avoid snapping the bit when drilling deep holes?
Use cutting fluid, clear chips every few seconds and keep the drill speed moderate for high speed steel.
