Product Specification Shipping Refund Product Specification 5/8" SILVER & DEMING HSS DRILL BIT Benchmark Abrasives 5/8" Silver & Deming HSS Drill Bits are ideal for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, titanium, manganese, and other tough materials. They are precision ground from one solid piece of heat-treated high speed and have a 135-degree split point to eliminate wobbling.  Silver and Deming drill bits are large size bits with reduced shanks that are ideal for situations where a bit diameter is greater than the capacity of a drill chuck. This Silver and Deming drill bit is also known as a reduced-shank drill bit. The HSS drill bits provide good wear resistance and can be used in general purpose applications on both ferrous and nonferrous materials. Oxide coating of these bits prevents chip building, galling, and welding on the workpiece. Its black-gold surface treatment holds lubricant for smoother, longer drilling. It is ideal for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, titanium, manganese, and other tough materials.  Quantity: 1 piece Dimensions Outer Diameter –5/8” Overall Length – 6” Shank Diameter – 1/2” with 3 Flats round shank  Black & gold coating to prevent rusting Machines Used On: Drill press and electric powered rotary drills Application: Steel, stainless steel, cast iron, titanium, manganese, and other tough materials Wood Safety Tips/techniques: We suggest using a drill press as opposed to a drill with our silver and demming bits.  A drill can be tricky to ensure straight drilled holes.  When using a handheld drill, invest in a jig to ensure your holes are straight Always wear proper PPE to include (but not limited to) safety glasses, hearing protection, respirator, and hand protection.  Keep all guards in place on your machine.
