Drill America 1-7/16in KFD Drill Bit

This high-speed steel drill bit features a 1/2in reduced shank with three flats for secure chuck grip. The Killer Force design includes a heavy-duty split point that starts on contact and reduces walking. It suits professionals needing a large-diameter bit for stationary drilling in metal.

Sustained drilling with reduced-shank HSS

The 3-flat shank prevents spin-out when torque builds during deep cuts. High-speed steel construction resists heat buildup better than carbon steel, maintaining edge life through repeated holes. The split-point geometry keeps the bit centred without a centre punch, reducing lateral force on the drill motor. Builders who need a bit longer than 6in overall or a shank larger than 1/2in should select a different tool.
