Questions about this item

What size drill chuck is required to hold the 13.70 mm shank?

A chuck with a minimum capacity of 13.70 mm is needed to grip the solid carbide shank securely.

Can this drill be used in a standard rotary drill without hammer action?

Yes, it is designed for rotary drilling only; hammer or impact modes will damage the carbide cutting edges.

How can I confirm the drill is cutting correctly after the first hole?

Check that the hole diameter measures 13.70 mm and that chips are short and curled rather than long strings.
