is the chuck size 3/8" or 1/2"?

The specs say it is 3/8: Item specifications: 0-800 rpm, automatic clutch settings, and 3/8" chuck size. This drill kit includes: (1) BDCDE120C 20v Max Drill/Driver, (1) 20V MAX Lithium Ion battery, (1) LCS1620 Charger, and (1) Double ended bit.

yes - i have been using it with a 5/8 bit - but the bit needs to have a stepped down shank - the small chuck can't hold larger than 3/8"

The shaft of the auger is 3/8" diameter and the end that fits into the drill is closer to 1/4".

3-1/2" is all you will cut with this saw, maybe 3 5/8". It is a great saw for the price.

The drill bits 3/8" and below will fit. Larger than 3/8" will need a 1/2" drill chuck

Kurt, 3/8" is closer to 9.5mm. I use scope stops, not the pin/scope stop arrangement, and treat 3/8" and 11mm scope rings as the same. RonRegards,Ron

I think it is 3/8". The shank is a cloverleaf with three sides. I use it in a power drill but have to tighten often.

The hole diameter is just a little over 5/16" of an inch, it will not fit a 3/8" shaft.

Yes, the drill bit portion of this assembly is made for a 3/8" chuck or larger.

Will work fine with either size chuck. I prefer to use compact lightweight 3/8" cordless drills but as others have said, if the shank fits a 3/8" chuck, it'll certainly fit a 1/2" chuck.

The chuck size is 1/2 inch. Here's a more comprehensive list of features that I got from another web site: *Laser X2 2-Beam Laser for precise hole alignment *Depth Adjustment System for easy depth control *Variable Speed Gearing-5 speed system for different material types *1/2" Keyed Chuck to accept large diameter bits designed for woodworking and cutting *Adjustable Depth Stop for accurate measurements and repetitive drilling *0-45 degree tilting square work surface for precise and accurate drilling *Bump-off Switch for added safety

No, the jaw opening is roughly the same as a 3/8" Jacob's chuck. Also the 1/4" hex base isn't easily held in a 3/8" mandrel

The chuck opens up to a maximum diameter of 3/8-in. Your 1/2-in bit would have to have a reduced shank diameter. It is pretty easy to find larger bits with a 3/8-in shank diameter.

Both of the other answers are wrong.I bought this one and have used it. Definitely a 3/8" ratchet.

It's like a regular drill bit, will fit a 3/8 inch drill, but I wouldn't buy it unless you are drilling into loose soil. The shaft will strip and then just spin around in the drill.

3/8" - I think their hammer drill, which is 1/2", is a much better buy.Black & Decker FireStorm 18 Volt FSX18HD Cordless Hammer Drill (Bare Tool only)

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.
