Cle-Line Reduced Shank Drill Bit
This 5/8 inch drill bit is built from high speed steel with a black and gold finish. The 118 degree point angle is suited to general purpose drilling in metal and wood. The reduced shank allows use in chucks that cannot accept a full diameter shank. It is a new accessory for power and pneumatic tools.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
Machinists and maintenance technicians who need a single large diameter bit for occasional holes in steel, aluminium or timber will find it practical. Buyers who want a set covering multiple sizes or a bit designed for high volume production drilling should look at other options.
5/8 inch diameter with 118 degree point
The defining specification is the 5/8 inch cutting diameter combined with the 118 degree point angle. This determines the hole size produced and the self-centring behaviour in the materials listed. Match this diameter and angle to your application requirements before purchasing.

Questions about this item
Will the 5/8 in reduced shank fit the 1/2 in chuck on my existing drill?
The reduced shank is designed to fit a 1/2 in chuck while the cutting diameter is 5/8 in, so it works with standard drills you already own.
How can I confirm the 118 degree point angle is cutting correctly after I start drilling?
A properly sharpened 118 degree point centres itself quickly, produces even chips and drills a straight hole without wandering on steel.
Does the black and gold high speed steel bit come with a case or just the bit itself?
The package contains the single 5/8 in reduced shank drill bit; no case or additional accessories are included.
