Tork Craft Drill Bit — HSS 17.5 mm Reduced Shank

A heavy-duty 17.5 mm twist drill bit made from high-speed steel (HSS), featuring a reduced shank so it fits into chucks that can’t grip the full diameter. Perfect for structural, fabrication or engineering applications.

Extra Information

  • Ensure the chuck grips the reduced portion completely to avoid slippage
  • Use appropriate RPM and feed rates—lower speeds for hard metals
  • Withdraw the bit periodically during deep drilling to clear chips and reduce heat

Pro Tip

  • Use a pilot hole or center punch to help guide this large bit and prevent wandering
  • Check for run-out after mounting—the effect is magnified at larger diameters

Features

  • Cutting diameter: 17.5 mm
  • Reduced shank design for compatibility with limited-capacity chucks
  • High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability and edge retention
  • Twist flute geometry for efficient chip removal
  • Supplied individually in a carded packaging (1 per card)

Benefits

<
  • Enables use of a large-diameter bit where full-diameter chucks aren’t supported
  • Robust performance for metalwork, general fabrication and workshop tasks
  • Maintains stability and alignment despite the reduced section

Safety

  • Wear eye protection when drilling
  • Ensure the material is firmly clamped or secured
  • Feed steadily—don’t force the bit
  • Ensure the drill is at proper speed before engaging work
