1/2 In - 1 In #8 Step Drill Bit, 9 Steps | Hss Black Oxide

Introducing the Milwaukee 1/2 in - 1 in #8 Step Drill Bit, 9 Steps, engineered to deliver clean, accurate holes in metal. Constructed from high-speed steel and finished with a tough black oxide coating, it resists corrosion and remains sharp under heavy use. The stepped geometry lets you drill multiple hole sizes in a single tool stroke, reducing bit changes and improving workflow. A fast-start tip minimizes wandering on contact, speeding up penetration and starting alignment.

Benefits for your workflow: This design speeds up drilling jobs by reducing tool swaps and delivering uniform holes across multiple sizes. The laser-engraved size indicators keep you on track, while the 1/4 in hex shank ensures fast bit changes with impact drivers and secure grip in standard chucks.

• Step-Drill Architecture: The nine-step throat enlarges holes from 1/2 in to 1 in in a single tool, reducing setup time and promoting precise hole sizes, a core advantage of a step drill bit.
• Rugged HSS with Black Oxide Finish: Made from high-speed steel and finished for corrosion resistance, this bit stands up to metalworking use and accepts cutting fluids to extend life.
• Nine-Stage Range: Drills through a spectrum from 1/2 in up to 1 in in one tool, offering versatility and minimizing tool changes on metal projects.
• 1/4 in Hex Shank for Quick Bit Changes: Compatible with impact drivers and standard chucks, enabling fast, secure bit swaps.
• Laser-Engraved Size Indicators: Clear, durable markings provide instant hole-size reference to improve accuracy and efficiency.

Why choose Milwaukee for metal drilling: Built for professionals who demand speed, precision, and long-lasting tools, this bit delivers consistent results across common metals. Its stepped design, tough construction, and quick-change compatibility reduce downtime and boost productivity on every project.
