Bordo 35/64" HSS Reduced Shank Drill

Bordo 35/64" HSS Reduced Shank Drill

The Bordo 35/64" Reduced Shank Drill combines a large cutting diameter with the convenience of a standard 1/2" shank, allowing use in common drill chucks without special adapters. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) and finished in blue to promote lubricant retention, it helps reduce friction and heat at the cutting edges for longer tool life. A 118° standard point and 30° right-hand helix support positive starting, accurate guidance, and efficient chip evacuation across general fabrication, MRO, and workshop applications.

Specifications :

• Cutting Diameter: 35/64"
• Shank Size: 1/2" (reduced shank)
• Overall Length (OAL): 152 mm
• Flute Length: 86 mm
• Point Angle: 118° (standard)
• Helix: 30° right hand
• Material: High Speed Steel (HSS)
• Finish: Blue finish (encourages cutting-fluid retention)
• Reference: 2651-35/64

Key Features & Benefits:

• Reduced 1/2" shank: Drill larger diameters with standard drill chucks
• HSS substrate: Balanced toughness and wear resistance for general-purpose drilling
• Blue finish: Helps keep lubricant on the tool, lowering friction and extending service life
• 118° point: Reliable centering and clean hole entry
• 30° RH helix: Smooth chip flow and consistent feed

Typical Applications: General fabrication, maintenance and repair, and workshop drilling in mild steels and other common engineering materials using hand drills or drill presses.
