Chicago-Latrobe 52471 118 Degree Silver & Deming Drill 1 7/64 in pneumatic accessory

Chicago-Latrobe 52471 Silver & Deming Drill

The Chicago-Latrobe 52471 is a Silver & Deming drill bit designed for drilling large diameter holes in metal. It features a reduced 1/2 inch shank to fit standard drill chucks. The 118 degree point angle provides general-purpose cutting performance across common materials. This accessory is built from high speed steel for durability in demanding applications.

Suits machinists drilling large holes

This drill suits machinists and fabricators who need a 1 7/64 inch cutting diameter but only have a 1/2 inch capacity chuck. The black oxide finish adds corrosion resistance and reduces friction during operation. Buyers requiring a larger shank diameter for heavy-duty rigidity or a different point angle for specialised materials should look at other tooling options. The high speed steel construction handles standard machining tasks effectively.

118 degree point angle determines cutting action

The 118 degree point angle is the critical specification defining how this bit engages the workpiece. It offers a balance of centring ability and cutting aggression for general steel and metal drilling. A different point angle would alter penetration speed, hole accuracy and suitability for harder alloys. Verify that this angle matches your material and machine requirements before purchase.
