7/8in HSS KFD Drill Bit with 3-Flat Shank
This high-speed steel drill bit features a 7/8 inch diameter and a 1/2 inch reduced shank with three flats for secure chuck grip. The Killer Force design incorporates a heavy-duty split point that reduces walking and improves penetration in tough materials. It suits professional mechanics and fabricators who need reliable hole-making in metal. The overall length is 6 inches with a 3 inch flute length for deep drilling capacity.
Reduced-shank design fits standard 1/2in chucks
The 1/2 inch shank allows this large-diameter bit to be used in common drill presses and heavy-duty handheld drills without requiring a specialised large-capacity chuck. Three flat surfaces on the shank prevent slippage under high torque loads. The split-point geometry centres the cut immediately, freeing the operator from using a centre punch on many materials. It does not suit machines limited to smaller shank diameters or applications requiring coolant-through tooling.

Questions about this item
How long does the 3-flat shank stay secure before slipping under heavy torque?
The 3-flat shank design grips the chuck tightly to resist rotation during high-load drilling.
Does the high-speed steel overheat quickly during all-day use?
HSS construction handles continuous cutting heat better than carbon steel in sustained operations.
