Blacksmith Drills (1/2inch Reduced Shank)

Tools Cutting Tools Drilling

We stock a comprehensive range of high-quality HSS (High Speed Steel) Blacksmith Drills with 1/2 inch reduced shanks, ideal for professional and industrial applications. These general-purpose drills are specifically designed to work with various materials including steels up to 1,000 N/mm2 tensile strength, cast steel, grey cast iron, malleable cast iron, nickel brass, and graphite. All drills feature a black oxide steam-tempered finish, 79mm flute length, and 151mm overall length, with sizes ranging from 13mm to 32mm (and equivalent imperial measurements). The reduced parallel 1/2 inch shank makes these drills perfect for use in hand drills, while the additional web thinning ensures better positioning and reduced feed force and torque. Our range from Presto offers exceptional quality and reliability for demanding industrial drilling applications.
