Questions about this item
What shank size does the 56740 countersink need to fit a drill chuck?
The 56740 countersink has a 1/2 inch body diameter, so it requires a drill chuck that can accommodate a 1/2 inch shank.
How do you install the 56740 countersink and what step is often missed?
Insert the 56740 into the chuck, tighten securely on the flats, then set the drill to low speed; the step often missed is applying steady axial pressure without tilting the tool.
