Precision Twist Drill 020036 Hss Reduced Shank Drill Bit 4 in

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 020036 is a high speed steel (HSS) taper and reduced shank drill bit measuring 4 inches in overall length. The reduced shank design allows the bit to be chucked in smaller capacity drill chucks while still delivering full-size hole cutting performance. HSS construction provides the hardness and heat resistance needed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastics. This bit is used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tradespeople who need a reliable reduced shank option for everyday drilling tasks on the bench or in the field.

The 020036 is suited for use in standard drill presses and hand drills equipped with smaller chucks that cannot accept full-size shanks. The reduced shank profile minimizes bit movement and walking on contact with the workpiece surface before the cutting edge fully engages, resulting in more accurate hole placement. This makes it a practical choice in metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and general trade work where drilling precision matters.

Key Features

• High speed steel construction for hardness and heat resistance during drilling
• Taper and reduced shank design fits smaller chuck capacities without sacrificing cutting diameter
• Reduced shank minimizes surface walking before the bit engages the workpiece
• Suitable for drilling metal, wood, and plastic materials
• Sold individually (each)

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or supplemental drill bit compatible with standard drill presses and portable drills that accept reduced shank tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this drill bit should be performed by qualified machinists or tradespeople familiar with proper drilling practices. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling and ensure the bit is fully seated and tightened in the chuck before operation. Always wear appropriate eye protection when drilling. Follow applicable shop safety standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines for speed settings based on material type and bit diameter.
