35/64 inch Reduced Shank Drill Bit

This Chicago-Latrobe Silver & Deming drill bit has a 35/64 inch diameter and a 1/2 inch reduced shank. It is made from high-speed steel with a black oxide finish. The 118 degree point angle suits general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic. Model number 52435 identifies this specific accessory.

For machinists needing large holes

The reduced shank lets you drill 35/64 inch holes using a drill with a 1/2 inch capacity chuck. It is not for buyers who need a bit that fits a smaller chuck without reduction. It is also not for users who require a split-point or cobalt tip for hard stainless steel or high-volume production drilling.

Simple chuck installation with standard hex keys

Insert the 1/2 inch shank into the chuck and tighten securely before use. The black oxide finish reduces chip welding but can wear off in abrasive materials. The most common issue is the bit spinning in the chuck if the jaws are not tight enough on the reduced shank flats.

Questions about this item

Does my drill chuck need to accept a 1/2 inch shank for the 35/64 inch bit?

Yes, the reduced shank measures 1/2 inch so your chuck must grip that diameter.

Will the 118 degree point angle work in the same steel I drill with standard bits?

The 118 degree point is a general-purpose angle suited to the same mild steel and alloy work as conventional bits.

How can I confirm the high-speed steel bit is cutting correctly after I start drilling?

Look for steady, straw-coloured chips and a smooth hole wall; blue chips or squealing mean the bit is overheating.
