High speed steel construction allows the bit to maintain cutting hardness under the heat generated during drilling, making it suitable for repeated use in production and service environments. This bit is used for drilling through metal, wood, and plastic in applications where a standard twist drill is the correct tool. It is sized for tradespeople and experienced users who require a precise fractional diameter for fastener clearance holes, pilot holes, or dimensional drilling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 23\/64 inch diameter positions this bit in the mid-range fractional sizes commonly used in mechanical, electrical, and general fabrication work. It fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks and is appropriate for use with corded or cordless drills and drill presses. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors reach for this size when drilling through framing members, sheet metal, or conduit backing plates where a close-tolerance hole is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction resists heat buildup during extended drilling cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy duty designation indicates reinforced geometry for demanding materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e23\/64 inch fractional diameter for precise hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for drilling metal, wood, and plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard fractional twist drill bit for use with any drill press or handheld drill accepting a 3-jaw chuck sized for 23\/64 inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSecure the workpiece before drilling to prevent movement. Ensure the bit is fully seated and tightened in the chuck before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling hardened metals to extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace if chipping or dulling is evident.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23\/64 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: IRWIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 63523\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IRWIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233437319474,"sku":"63523","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307629174.jpg?v=1780099996","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/irwin-63523-hss-drill-bit-23-64-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
