Extension Length Drill Bit, 12 In Long, 1/2 In Diameter - Vermont American

The Vermont American 13282 Extension Length Drill Bit is engineered for professionals requiring extended reach and precision in demanding drilling applications. Measuring 12 inches in overall length with a 1/2 inch diameter, this drill bit is designed to tackle deep holes and access restricted areas where standard-length bits cannot reach. Crafted from premium high-speed steel, it ensures consistent performance and durability in various materials.

Key Features

• Extended Reach Design: 12-inch overall length provides access for deep hole drilling and hard-to-reach applications.
• Optimal Flute Length: Features a 4-1/2 inch flute length for effective chip evacuation during deep cuts.
• 135-Degree Split Point: Engineered to minimize bit "walking" upon initial contact, enabling faster starts and precise hole placement.
• Premium High-Speed Steel: Precision ground from robust high-speed steel for enhanced durability and prolonged bit life in rigorous industrial and automotive environments.
• Professional Grade Construction: Built to withstand the demands of professional technicians and mechanics.

Applications

This extension length drill bit is an essential tool for automotive technicians and industrial professionals. It is particularly useful for drilling through thick materials, such as chassis components, engine blocks (when appropriate materials are being drilled), and machinery frames, where a standard drill bit would be too short. Its extended length allows for precise pilot holes or through-holes in structural members, fabrication projects, and other deep drilling scenarios across various metals, plastics, and wood.
