What is the shank diameter of these forstner bits. I want to buy a forstner bit depth stop which only accommodates certain diameter shanks.

All of the bits have a &#8540;" diameter by 1&#8539;" long shank. The main part of the shank is determined by the size of the bit.

All of the bits have a ⅜" diameter by 1⅛" long shank. The main part of the shank is determined by the size of the bit.

These are regular shank drill bits, SDS bits just pushes in to a chuck without tightening and longer. So if your drill chuck doesn't tighten with a key or by hand then these won't work. They usually are a harden steel for chipping or use in a hammer drill and I believe come in larger sizes. This drill set seems to be a very good set for up to 1/4'" material as far as my use so far, and is nicely packaged for your tool box.

It has a smaller shank. I used it in my 3/8" drill chuck. I got them to use on a cast iron sink and they worked great. I have since used them for many other projects. They still look new and are staying sharp so far.

The round-shank (end) section is 24mm (~15/16") diameter, ~2" long. The (notched) hex-shank section is 30mm (~1 3/16") flat-to-flat, ~2 5/8 " long.

If you buy the bit adapter you can use standard small shank SDS bits. This unit is made for the larger shank bits. I have the adapter but I also use both sizes if bits. It is a great hammer drill. I am a General Contractor and it is a great addition to our work.

I can not find a size listed on the drill bit. Sorry for not being any help.

I think the diameter is large enough (too large?), because they're alloy and thin walled. Can't say for sure because I put some old SRAM gripshifts on it. Good luck. Worst case scenario: Amazon will typically take anything back.

I use Forstner drill bits all the time. You can repair a "nick" in the cutting edge with a round file, but it is very time consuming to sharpen the entire bit with a file. To avoid dulling the cutting edge, run the bit at low speed and use smaller bits to remove most of the material before finishing the cut with the larger 2" dia. bit.

The bits are called SDS MAX. It refers ro the type of shank on the bit that fits into the drill.

You can buy bits that are larger than 3/8 inch that have a 3/8 shank. If you plan to do a lot of drilling with bits larger than 3/8 ", invest in a bigger drill motor. As another reviewer mentioned, the thread count has to match to go to the larger chuck. Also, it is not alwasy easy to remove the original chuck. Make sure you try to remove it before ordering the replacemant, if you wish to go that route.

Thank you for your question. The Bosch CST1 Countersink has a 1/4" round (straight) shank so it will fit in a 3/8" drill chuck. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

I believe it's a 1/2" shank but I'm not absolutely sure. It's in my shop up in CT and I'm in NYC at the moment, so I can't check it. I'll check this weekend and send confirmation. But your router should be able to handle 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" shanks with different collets.
