Eagle Cutting Tool 1080-042-D Hss Drill Bit 21/32 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL 1080-042-D is a 21/32-inch high speed steel (HSS) slow-spiral (SD) drill bit with a 1/2-inch shank, manufactured in the USA. Slow-spiral geometry reduces chip packing and heat buildup when drilling deep holes in softer materials such as wood, plastics, and soft metals. The 1/2-inch shank fits standard 1/2-inch drill chucks found on corded and cordless industrial drills. This bit is suited for machinists, fabricators, millwrights, and general contractors who need a reliable, USA-made HSS drill for production or maintenance drilling operations.

This drill bit is appropriate for use in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and on job sites where precise hole sizing is required. The 21/32-inch diameter is a common sizing for bolt clearance holes, port openings, and stepped-hole operations. It is designed for use in drill presses, lathes, and hand-held power drills equipped with a 1/2-inch capacity chuck. Slow-spiral flute design makes this bit well suited for softer work materials where standard twist drills may tend to grab or chatter.

Key Features

• 21/32-inch cutting diameter for precise hole sizing in production and maintenance applications
• High speed steel (HSS) construction resists heat and wear during extended drilling cycles
• Slow-spiral (SD) flute geometry reduces chip packing in softer materials
• 1/2-inch straight shank fits standard 1/2-inch drill chucks without adapters
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed for use in any drill press, lathe tailstock, or hand-held power drill with a 1/2-inch or larger chuck capacity.

Installation Notes

Secure the bit firmly in the chuck and verify it runs true before drilling. Always clamp the workpiece securely to prevent rotation. Reduce feed pressure and use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling metals to extend bit life and maintain dimensional accuracy. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use.
