The cutting diameter is 25\/32 inches (0.7812 inches decimal), with a reduced 1\/2-inch straight-cylindrical shank that allows use in standard 1\/2-inch drill chucks even at this larger bit size. The 118-degree standard point angle suits a wide range of metals and work materials. Overall length is 6 inches with a 3-inch flute length and a straw finish that provides a visual indicator of the cobalt construction. Right-hand spiral flutes clear chips efficiently during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for metalworking trades, maintenance technicians, and fabrication professionals who need to drill larger-diameter holes without upgrading to a larger chuck capacity. The reduced shank design is especially practical when working with 1\/2-inch capacity drill presses or hand drills in shop and field environments. General-purpose cobalt construction handles steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous metals that would wear down standard high-speed steel bits more quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25\/32-inch cutting diameter (0.7812 inches) with a reduced 1\/2-inch shank for use in standard chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt tool material provides increased heat and wear resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch flute length allows drilling to a maximum depth of 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with regular spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraw finish typical of cobalt bits; no additional coating required for most applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose reduced shank drill bit compatible with 1\/2-inch capacity drill chucks on standard drill presses, magnetic drills, and hand drills used in metalworking and maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance professionals familiar with drilling operations. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling and ensure the chuck is tightened on the shank before powering the tool. Do not exceed the recommended drilling depth of 3 inches for this bit. Apply cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole quality, unless the application specifically prohibits coolant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\/32 inches (0.7812 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01343508\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689599795506,"sku":"01343508","price":102.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/314272325091736b534380004d029d22.jpg?v=1788261676","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01343508-cobalt-drill-bit-25-32-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
