Hello to that serves the drill 460 mm long and 0.86 inches uilidad is given to the drill? , I am plumber, and I cannot find utility. I await your response

I have no idea what you’re asking, but I’m guessing you’re trying to find an SAE size equivalent to .86mm?

 

If so, you’ll probably have to step down to a 1/32″ (.7938mm) or step up to a  3/64″ (1.1906mm). If you have access to number bits, you could use a #65 bit (.889mm)

which is used for drill bits for so long wall of 0.86 inch, 460 mm long? I am a plumber and find you no utility to the bit.

do you have a picture of what your referring to? They have airplane bits which are very long straight shaft bits

Yea, there’s gotta be something I’m missing. 460mm would be just a hair over 18″. I’ve never seen a bit as small as 1/32″ or 3/64″ in an 18″ length. The smallest 18″ bit I can find is 3/16″ (4.7mm) which is much bigger than what he’s looking for. 

 

I’d like to meet the guy who is steady handed enough to use an 18″ long 1/32″ bit without breaking it. 

 

Gotta be something lost in translation here

He’s talking about a 7/8″ bit that is 18″ long for rough in.

Milwaukee ship auger bits are well respected. I’ve been leaning towards Wood Owl lately.
