                  Tork Craft Drill Bit — HSS 14.0 mm Reduced Shank
A robust 14.0 mm high-speed steel (HSS) drill bit featuring a reduced shank, enabling it to be used in chucks with limited capacity. Ideal for drilling larger holes in steel, aluminium, plastics and general fabrication work where full-diameter shanks are incompatible.
Extra Information
- Ensure the reduced portion remains fully gripped in the chuck to prevent slippage.
 - Use slower RPM for steel and harder materials to avoid heat damage.
 - Clear chips regularly to maintain cutting efficiency and reduce wear.
 
Pro Tip
- Use a center punch or pilot hole to prevent bit wandering especially given the reduced shank design.
 - Check runout after chucking a reduced-shank bit — misalignment magnifies with larger diameters.
 
Features
- 14.0 mm cutting diameter — for larger clearance or bore applications.
 - Reduced shank — allows use of the bit in smaller chucks by decreasing shank diameter.
 - High-speed steel construction — ensures durability, sharpness and versatility across materials.
 - Optimized twist/flute geometry for effective chip evacuation.
 - Single carded unit — suited for replacement or specialty drilling tasks.
 
Benefits
- Compatibility: reduced shank means you can use a large-diameter bit even in chucks unable to grip full size.
 - Performance: sharp HSS holds edge in fabrication and mechanical environments.
 - Precision: maintains alignment and straightness even in heavy-duty drilling tasks.
 
Safety
- Wear eye protection during drilling.
 - Ensure the chuck firmly grips the reduced shank portion.
 - Use proper feed rate and coolant/lubricant as needed for harder materials.
 - Clamp the workpiece to prevent movement or vibration.
