Chicago-Latrobe 53450 Drill Bit
This 25/32 inch drill bit is designed for metalworking tasks requiring a large diameter hole. It suits maintenance professionals and fabricators who need a durable cutting tool for tough materials. The cobalt construction provides resistance to heat and wear during demanding operations.
Reduced Shank Fits Standard Chucks
