Are the included bits 1/4 or 1/2 inch shank size?

They are 1/2". The mini template (not included in this kit) uses and is supplied with 1/4". If you want you can either order this as a separate piece (as I did) or order the jig combination that includes it. The only reason that I ordered it separately is that Amazon wouldn't ship the higher jig combo to my destination.

This cutter has a 1/2" shank. These cutters work extremely well. I build Shaker chairs and use these to finish cut the tenons of stretchers and rails. They fit "exactly" into drilled mortises of the same size. Nice tools!

It is 1/4". I have used Makita and Hitachi impact drivers and their 1/4 " is same as this Dewalt.

Hi Randy, The 3/16"-1/2"(six step drill) and the 1/8"-1/2"(thirteen step drill) both have 1/4" shank. The 1/4"-3/4"(nine step drill) has a 3/8" shank. Hope this will help you?

No, Router bits for1/2" has a larger diameter shaft/shank which is 1/2" and uses 1/2" collet. If you desire to use 1/4" router bit which has a 1/4" diameter shaft/shank, than you need to change the collet to accommodate a 1/4" bit. Is money well spend to have a 1/4" collet.

Hi Joe,This unit uses a 1/4" shank and no bigger than a 1-3/8" diameter cutting bit.

Standard size 1/4 inch bits will not fit but you can purchase assortments of 1/8 inch "precision" bits that have hex heads and other assortments that may be suitable for your needs. search for "precision bits."

I tried to use these with my kreg hole system and they are not a snug fit. The kreg drill bit is 1/4"

They look to be #10 straight shank approx. 2 1/2 inch long with flat head. I think larger screws or lag bolts would require you to drill out the holes a bit. hope this helps.

Hi!! The bits are not labeled but it is not necesary for me to know the diameter. Thanks!

they are around an 1-1/" to 2" . A standard 3/4" drill bit will do it for you.

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.

No, you cannot use tool bits with 1/4" dia shanks in a 1/2" collet, you must use a 1/4" collet. Amazon sells a 1/4" collet that will fit in the same spindle recess as your 1/2" collet. I have used both.

I have 6 of them and they are a 1/8" shank but Amazon might know a better answer

I'm not an expert in that arena but SDS+ to the best of my understanding has always the same "shank" diameter. But not sure about the shaft thing. You can take a look @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_shank
