Chicago-Latrobe 52484 Drill Bit
The Chicago-Latrobe 52484 is a silver and deming drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling tasks. It features a 1/2 inch reduced shank that fits standard drill chucks. This new accessory targets professionals and DIY users needing a reliable high-speed steel cutting tool.
118 Degree Point Angle Geometry
The 118 degree point angle determines how the bit engages the workpiece and clears chips during operation. This angle is a standard geometry suited for drilling into mild steel, cast iron and similar ferrous materials. Selecting the correct point angle ensures efficient cutting and reduces wandering at the start of the hole.
Suited for Ferrous Metal Drilling
This bit suits machinists and maintenance crews drilling mild steel or cast iron with a 1 5/16 inch diameter requirement. The black oxide finish adds lubricity and corrosion resistance for longer life. Buyers who need a different diameter, a split-point design for harder alloys, or a full-size shank for heavy-duty rigs should look at alternative options.

Questions about this item
What hole size will the 1 5/16 in drill bit actually produce in metal?
The bit is ground to 1 5/16 in diameter, so it cuts a hole of that nominal size in steel and other machinable metals.
How does the 1/2 in reduced shank limit the drill presses or chucks I can use?
The shank fits any 1/2 in or larger three-jaw chuck, but it will not seat in smaller capacity drill presses or hand drills.
What clearance does the 1 5/16 in body need inside a workpiece or fixture?
The cutting portion measures 1 5/16 in across, so the workpiece opening or fixture bore must be at least that wide to avoid interference.
