31/64in Cobalt Reduced Shank Drill Bit
This 31/64 inch cobalt drill bit features a reduced shank that fits a 3/8 inch chuck. It is built from cobalt steel with bronze oxide surface-treated flutes for drilling hard metals. The decimal equivalent is .4844 inch with a flute length of 4-3/8 inch and overall length of 5-7/8 inch.
Reduced Shank Limits Chuck Compatibility
The reduced shank design allows use in 3/8 inch chucks but cannot be secured in smaller chucks. Cobalt steel resists heat yet remains brittle under heavy side loads or interrupted cuts. The fixed 31/64 inch diameter prevents drilling larger or smaller holes without changing bits. Bronze oxide coating wears over time and does not replace cutting fluid.
