The Tru-Cut 47625 silver & deming drill bit delivers professional-grade performance for heavy-duty drilling applications. With a 5/8″ diameter and 6″ overall length, this steel drill bit features a reduced 1/2″ shank for compatibility with standard drill chucks. Manufactured by Tru-Cut, a U.S.-based producer since 1957, this lot of 2 drill bits offers consistent quality and durability for metal fabrication, automotive work, and general machine shop applications.
Key Features
- Silver & deming flute design for efficient chip evacuation and reduced heat buildup
- 118-degree point angle optimized for metal drilling in steel, aluminum, and cast iron
- Reduced shank (1/2″) allows use in standard drill chucks and portable drills
- Steel construction provides strength and precision for production runs and heavy-duty use
- Supplied as a lot of 2 for replacement and backup inventory
Technical Specifications
Silver & deming drill bits are purpose-built for large-hole drilling where jobber-length bits fall short. The 5/8″ diameter with 6″ overall length delivers the reach and cutting surface needed for drilling through thick material and stacked parts. The 3″ flute depth (cutting portion) provides ample engagement for reliable performance without deflection.
Typical Applications
- Metal fabrication shops and heavy equipment assembly
- Automotive body work and engine block drilling
- General machine shop drilling of large-diameter holes
- Maintenance and repair operations requiring heavy-duty cutting tools
- Production drilling where bit life and consistency are critical
Compatibility & Replacements
Compatible With
- Standard 1/2″ drill chucks (portable and stationary drills)
- Drill presses with 1/2″ spindle capacity
- CNC drilling machines with 1/2″ spindles
- Radial arm drills and gang drilling setups
