Reduced Shank Drill Bits - Function Bits with a reduced shank diameter fit small-chuck drills while delivering standard cutting performance. - Key benefits Enables use of larger diameter bits in drills with limited chuck capacity Helps maintain alignment and reduce runout due to consistent geometry Available in a range of standard diameters with matched reduced shank sizes Built for durability under normal drilling tasks - Compatibility and sizing Fits chucks that accept reduced shank sizes; verify your chuck size and select the corresponding shank option Multiple diameter options cover common project needs - Material and performance Manufactured from standard drill bit materials and finish tolerances for reliable cutting Suitable for general drilling tasks across common materials when used with appropriate speeds - Use scenarios In a small workshop, enable larger hole sizes with a compact drill by using reduced shank bits On site or in tight spaces, drill through metal, wood, or plastic where chuck capacity is limited Cabinetry or furniture assembly where larger holes are needed without upgrading to a larger drill
