The bit features a 3\/4 inch cutting diameter with a reduced 1\/2 inch straight-cylindrical shank, allowing it to fit into smaller chucks without sacrificing hole size. The 118-degree standard point angle suits general-purpose drilling in mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar workpiece materials. An oxide finish provides light corrosion resistance during storage and use. Overall length is 6 inches with a 3 inch spiral flute length, and the right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional drill operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for metalworking shops, maintenance and repair operations, and light fabrication environments. It is appropriate for use in residential or commercial trade settings where a journeyman machinist, millwright, or maintenance technician requires a general-purpose drill bit capable of producing 3\/4 inch holes without a larger chuck. The reduced shank design makes it practical for portable drilling applications where only a 1\/2 inch drill is available on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced 1\/2 inch shank fits standard 1\/2 inch drill chucks while producing a 3\/4 inch hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose drilling in low and medium tensile strength materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides good wear resistance for intermittent drilling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide finish offers light corrosion protection during storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 inch spiral flute length supports chip evacuation up to 3 inches of drilling depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute — compatible with standard drill rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose reduced shank drill bit for use in 1\/2 inch capacity drill chucks on drill presses, lathes, and portable power drills.
