27/32 inch Silver and Deming drill bit
This Drill America bit is a high-speed steel Silver and Deming drill with a 1/2 inch reduced shank. It is designed for drilling large holes in metal where the drill press or chuck capacity is limited to 1/2 inch. The surface-treated flutes help clear chips efficiently during operation.
Upgrading from standard twist drills
Standard twist drills larger than 1/2 inch typically require a larger chuck that many handheld drills lack. This reduced-shank design allows the 27/32 inch cutting diameter to be used in a common 1/2 inch chuck. The jump is worth it when you need a single large hole size without buying a larger drill press or specialty chucking system.

Questions about this item
Will the 1/2in reduced shank fit my 1/2in drill chuck?
Yes, the 1/2in reduced shank is made for a standard 1/2in chuck; tighten all three jaws evenly so the bit runs true.
What is the correct way to start the 27/32in bit so it does not walk?
Centre-punch the workpiece, apply steady pressure at low speed, and use cutting fluid to keep the HSS flutes cool.
