The bit features a 57\/64 inch (0.8906 inch decimal) cutting diameter paired with a 1\/2 inch straight-cylindrical shank, allowing it to be chucked in standard 1\/2 inch drill chucks even though the cutting diameter is larger. Constructed from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, it delivers adequate hardness and corrosion resistance for everyday shop and field use. The 118-degree standard point angle suits a wide range of common materials. Right-hand cutting spiral flutes run 3 inches in length for efficient chip evacuation during drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for machinists, maintenance technicians, fabricators, and trade professionals who need to produce 57\/64 inch holes without requiring a larger chuck capacity. The reduced shank design makes it practical for use in drill presses, hand drills, and benchtop machines equipped with 1\/2 inch chucks. With a 6 inch overall length and a maximum drilling depth of 3 inches, it handles standard through-hole and moderate depth drilling tasks in production and repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e57\/64 inch cutting diameter (0.8906 inch decimal) with a reduced 1\/2 inch straight-cylindrical shank for broad chuck compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability for general-purpose drilling across common materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for reliable starting and consistent hole geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish improves surface hardness and provides light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 inch spiral flute length with regular right-hand spiral for effective chip clearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6 inch overall length accommodates standard depth applications on drill presses and portable drills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or addition for any setup using a 1\/2 inch chuck where a 57\/64 inch hole diameter is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall and remove drill bits only after the drill or drill press is fully powered down and the chuck has stopped.
