29/32" Cobalt Drill Bit for Heavy Metalwork
This 29/32 inch cobalt steel drill bit is built for drilling tough alloys and stainless steel. The bronze oxide surface treatment on the flutes reduces friction and resists heat buildup. Its reduced 1/2 inch shank allows use in standard drill chucks while maintaining a large cutting diameter. The overall length is 6 inches with a 3 inch flute length.
Reduced Shank Fits Standard Chucks
The 1/2 inch reduced shank lets this large-diameter bit run in common 1/2 inch capacity drill chucks without needing a specialised holder. This frees up the need for a larger drill press or Morse taper adapter in many workshop tasks. The cobalt construction withstands higher drilling temperatures than standard high-speed steel. It is not suited for wood, plastics or soft non-ferrous metals where standard bits perform better.

Questions about this item
Will the 1/2 inch reduced shank limit the drill press capacity when using the full 29/32 inch diameter?
The 1/2 inch reduced shank fits standard 1/2 inch chucks while the cutting diameter remains 29/32 inch, so the chuck capacity sets the practical limit.
How much heat builds up in the cobalt steel during continuous drilling?
Cobalt steel resists heat better than high-speed steel and the bronze oxide finish helps dissipate it, but sustained high-speed work will still generate noticeable warmth.
