Tork Craft Drill Hss 17.5Mm 135Deg 1/Card Reduced Shank Industrial Bit

Description

Tork Craft Drill Bit — HSS 17.5 mm Reduced Shank Industrial Bit (135° Split Point)

Industrial-grade 17.5 mm high-speed steel (HSS) drill bit featuring a precision-ground 135° split point tip for self-centering starts and reduced walking. The reduced shank design allows this large-diameter bit to fit standard 13 mm chucks — ideal for drilling steel, aluminium, plastics and cast iron.

Specifications

Features

• 17.5 mm cutting diameter for large, accurate boreholes.
• 135° split point tip ensures fast starts without walking or skidding.
• Reduced shank enables compatibility with standard 13 mm drill chucks.
• HSS construction offers excellent strength, wear resistance and sharpness.
• Optimized flute geometry ensures smooth chip evacuation and cooler operation.

Benefits

• Accuracy: self-centering tip eliminates the need for pilot holes.
• Durability: high-speed steel resists dulling and heat buildup.
• Versatility: ideal for ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

Extra Information

• Use a quality cutting oil or lubricant when drilling metals to extend bit life.
• Operate at lower speeds on hard materials; faster for softer substrates.
• Always verify that the reduced shank is properly seated and tightened in the chuck.

Safety

• Always wear eye protection when drilling.
• Secure the workpiece before drilling to prevent slipping or spinning.
• Let the bit reach full speed before contacting the surface.
• Do not force the bit — apply steady, controlled pressure.
