Taper Shank Drill Bit 13/16 in
This Chicago-Latrobe 53152 taper shank drill bit has a 13/16 inch diameter and a 118 degree conventional point. It is made from high speed steel with a black oxide finish. The tool fits standard taper shank holders for general purpose drilling tasks.
Installation and Common Issues
Insert the taper shank firmly into a matching taper socket or sleeve until it seats securely. A loose fit causes runout and premature wear on the cutting edges. Ensure the workpiece is clamped rigidly to prevent the bit from walking at the start of the hole.
Suitability and Limitations
This bit suits machinists and maintenance technicians drilling ferrous and non-ferrous metals in general purpose applications. Buyers needing a different diameter, a split point for self-centering, or a straight shank for three jaw chucks should look at other tooling options.
