Chicago-Latrobe 55449 49/64 in 118° Silver & Deming Drill 1/2 Reduced Shank

Chicago-Latrobe 55449 Silver & Deming Drill

This Chicago-Latrobe 55449 drill bit is a Silver & Deming style tool designed for creating 49/64 in holes. The 118 degree point angle suits general-purpose drilling in metal. A 1/2 reduced shank allows use with standard drill chucks. It is made from high speed steel with a black oxide finish.

Suits 1/2 chuck jobs; not for larger shanks

This bit suits machinists and maintenance technicians who need a 49/64 in hole using a drill with a 1/2 in chuck capacity. The reduced shank bridges the size gap effectively. It is not for users whose equipment requires a shank larger than 1/2 in. Buyers needing different diameters or point angles should select another bit.

49/64 in diameter with 1/2 reduced shank

The defining specification is the 49/64 in cutting diameter paired with a 1/2 in reduced shank. This combination determines whether the bit fits your chuck and produces the required hole size. Verify both the shank compatibility and the target diameter before ordering. The 118 degree point and high speed steel construction support general machining tasks.
