Chicago-Latrobe 50561 15/32 in Drill Bit
This Chicago-Latrobe 50561 drill bit measures 15/32 inch and features a 118-degree notched point. It is made from high-speed steel with a black oxide finish and offers a maximum drilling depth of 5 1/2 inches. The extra-long design suits deep-hole applications.
Suited for general-purpose machining
The 28-degree helix angle supports standard chip evacuation in deep holes. Buyers needing a split-point geometry for self-centering or a different point angle for specialised materials should consider other options. The straight shank fits common drill chucks.
High-speed steel construction
The black oxide finish adds corrosion resistance and reduces friction during drilling. No additional accessories, cases or software are included with this single drill bit. The tool arrives ready for immediate use in compatible drill chucks.

Questions about this item
What chuck size do I need to hold the 15/32 in shank on this bit?
You need a drill chuck that opens to at least 15/32 in; most 1/2 in capacity chucks will accept it.
Will the 118 degree point angle still cut cleanly if I run it in an older low-speed drill press?
Yes, the 118 degree point with notched geometry is designed for general-purpose machining and works at lower RPMs.
How can I confirm the bit is drilling to the full 5 1/2 in depth after setup?
Mark the flute at 5 1/2 in with tape; when the mark reaches the workpiece surface you have reached maximum drilling depth.
