27/32 Inch Silver and Deming Drill Bit
This Drill America bit is a high-speed steel Silver and Deming drill designed for enlarged hole drilling in metal. It features a 27/32 inch cutting diameter with a decimal equivalent of .8438. The tool has a 1/2 inch reduced shank with three flatted surfaces to prevent slippage in the chuck. Overall length measures 6 inches with a 3 inch flute length.
Machinists needing large holes in steel
The reduced shank allows use in 1/2 inch capacity drill chucks, making it suitable for maintenance and fabrication tasks. Buyers who require a straight shank matching the cutting diameter should look elsewhere. Those needing cobalt or carbide substrate for high-heat alloys will need a different material grade. Users requiring longer flute lengths for deep-hole drilling must select an alternative bit.

Questions about this item
What size drill chuck is needed to hold the 1/2 reduced shank on this 27/32in bit?
The reduced shank measures 1/2 inch, so a drill chuck with at least a 1/2 inch capacity is required to grip it securely.
Will the 3-flatted shank prevent this bit from slipping in a keyless chuck used with older drills?
Yes, the three flats on the shank give the chuck jaws positive contact, reducing slippage even in worn or keyless chucks on older drills.
