Chicago-Latrobe 52459 Drill Bit
This Chicago-Latrobe 52459 drill bit is a Silver & Deming style cutter designed for drilling 59/64 in holes in metal and other machinable materials. It suits machinists and maintenance technicians who need a large-diameter hole using a standard 1/2 in capacity drill chuck.
High Speed Steel with Black Oxide Finish
The bit is manufactured from High Speed Steel for wear resistance and features a black oxide finish that helps retain lubricant during cutting. Its 1/2 in reduced shank fits securely in standard drill chucks, while the 118 degree point angle provides reliable centring and chip evacuation in general-purpose applications.
Check Chuck Capacity Before Ordering
Verify that your drill chuck accepts a 1/2 in shank, as this bit will not fit smaller capacities. Ensure the workpiece material is compatible with High Speed Steel cutting and that your drill delivers sufficient torque for a 59/64 in diameter hole.

Questions about this item
What is the 118-degree point angle designed for?

What chuck size is required for the 1/2 inch reduced shank?
The 1/2 inch reduced shank fits any drill chuck with a 1/2 inch or larger capacity, allowing use with smaller portable drills.
How should the black oxide finish be maintained during use?
Apply cutting fluid when drilling metal to reduce heat and preserve the black oxide finish, which aids chip flow and resists corrosion.
