Drill America 53/64in HSS Reduced Shank Drill Bit
This Drill America accessory is a Silver and Deming drill bit made from high-speed steel with a reduced shank. It has a 53/64in cutting diameter and a 1/2in shank to fit larger drill chucks. The bit features surface-treated flutes for chip evacuation and an overall length of 6in.
Users needing a 53/64in hole in metal
This bit suits machinists and maintenance technicians who need a single large-diameter hole in steel or cast iron using a standard 1/2in capacity drill. It is not for buyers who need a full set of incremental sizes, a smaller shank for 3/8in chucks, or a different cutting diameter for their application.
Highlights
- 53/64 inch drilling capacity for large-hole applications

Questions about this item
How do I install the 53/64 inch reduced shank bit into my 1/2 inch drill chuck without it slipping?
Open the chuck fully, insert the shank until the flutes clear the jaws, then tighten firmly on the reduced shank section; the step users miss is not seating the shank deep enough, which causes wobble in the 1/2 inch chuck.
When will the 53/64 inch HSS Silver and Deming bit need resharpening or replacement?
Resharpen when the cutting lips show visible wear or the drill pushes hard instead of feeding smoothly; HSS handles heat well, but heavy use in tough steel dulls the edges faster than occasional wood or aluminium work.
