Cleveland Taper Shank Drill Bit 55/64

This Cleveland taper shank drill bit measures 55/64 inches and features a 118 degree conventional point angle. It is manufactured from high speed steel with a black oxide finish for durability. The tool suits machinists and maintenance technicians who require a taper shank for secure mounting in compatible drill presses or lathes.

Practical limits of the taper shank interface

The taper shank design requires a matching Morse taper socket in the machine spindle for proper drive and alignment. It cannot be used in standard three jaw chucks without a suitable adaptor sleeve. The 118 degree point angle is intended for general purpose drilling in mild steel and cast iron rather than hardened alloys or high precision hole finishing. Buyers needing straight shank compatibility or different point geometries should consider other drill bit types.

Questions about this item

Is the 55/64" size the right choice for a Morse taper holder?

Yes, the 55/64" drill bit uses a taper shank designed to fit matching Morse taper holders or sleeves without a separate chuck.

How does the 118° point angle perform in steel?

The 118° conventional point centres quickly in mild steel and general-purpose metals, while the high-speed steel body and black oxide finish resist wear and heat.
