Irwin - 49/64" Drill, 118° Point, High Speed Steel Silver Deming & Reduced Shank Drill Bit

High speed steel (HSS) provides good wear resistance and can be used in general purpose applications on both ferrous and nonferrous materials.

Bright provides a smooth, polished finish on the tool. It increases chip flow in softer materials such as aluminum, wood and plastic.

Round shanks with flats are ground flat on three sides for increased chuck grip, reducing slippage and help centering the drill in the chuck. They are used with portable drills and drill presses on ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

Spiral flutes are constructed with a higher flute angle to remove chips more easily.

Spiral flute reamers are used in blind and through-hole operations. They are used to bridge interrupted cuts.

Regular, also known as medium spiral bits, are used in general purpose applications. They are used on soft, nonferrous materials.

Spiral flutes are constructed with a higher flute angle to remove chips more easily.
