1-9/64in HSS Silver and Deming Bit
This Drill America accessory is a high-speed steel drill bit with a reduced 1/2in shank designed for Silver and Deming applications. The surface-treated flutes provide durability when drilling large-diameter holes. It suits machinists and maintenance technicians who need a single large bit for use in drill presses or heavy-duty handheld drills. The bit offers a decimal equivalent of 1.1406 for precise hole sizing.
Upgrade from smaller twist drills
This bit replaces the need for step drilling or hole saws when a precise 1-9/64in hole is required in metal. The reduced shank allows it to fit standard 1/2in chucks, removing the constraint of needing a large-capacity chuck. The jump is worth it for repetitive production work where the 3in flute length and 6in overall length provide the reach and chip clearance that shorter bits cannot deliver. It is not suited for wood-only drilling or for users who need a full set of incremental sizes.
Highlights
- 1-9/64 inch bit bores large holes cleanly
- High-speed steel construction resists wear in tough materials
- Reduced 1/2 inch shank fits standard drill chucks securely
- Surface-treated flutes improve chip evacuation for smoother cuts
