About this item

  • High Speed Steel tool - 15.5mm cutting diameter. Good for most general purpose applications, featuring a combination of hardness and toughness for wear resistance
  • Reduced Shank - Expanding the size range capacity of a portable drill chuck. Common flute and overall length for minimal adjustment during tool changes
  • Black Oxide Finish - Black oxide treatment adds lubricity. Small pockets on the surface of the tool that act to hold coolant near the cutting edge
  • Wide Application - Design for drilling in low and medium tensile strength materials, such aluminum, iron, copper, brass and metal
  • Please Note: To make clean and precise holes, water is required for lubrication and cooling when drilling metals. Increased use of water lubrication will extend drill bit life

I'm a hobby machinist and possibly an idiot when it comes to speeds and feeds. This bit put a nice hole in 1/2" cold rolled and still seems sharp, which is more than I can say for the junk bits I've used from a certain brick and mortar tool importer.

Upon opening the package the drill bit had already been used. There was a large burr on the shank as if it was spun in a drill chuck and the flutes were discolored and scarred.
