Norseman Drill & Tool Fractional Sizes Reduced Shank GOLDSTRIKE™ Type 190-GFR Twist Drill Bit

Norseman Drill & Tool Fractional Sizes Reduced Shank GOLDSTRIKE™ Type 190-GFR Twist Drill Bit: Heavy-Duty Precision for Handheld Drilling

The Norseman Drill & Tool Fractional Sizes Reduced Shank GOLDSTRIKE™ Type 190-GFR Twist Drill Bit combines rugged durability, precision engineering, and ease of use to deliver outstanding drilling performance. Proudly made in the USA, this premium-quality drill bit is built for professionals who demand reliable power and accuracy in tough materials and challenging applications.

Crafted from premium high-speed steel (HSS), the GOLDSTRIKE™ Type 190-GFR features heavy-duty construction that provides superior strength and durability. It’s specifically designed for difficult-to-drill materials such as stainless steel, hardened alloys, and high-tensile metals. Engineered to perform under extreme conditions, this bit maintains its edge, resists heat buildup, and ensures long service life even during continuous use.

The reduced shank design allows for drilling larger holes with standard 3/8" or 1/2" capacity chucks—making it ideal for handheld drills with keyless chucks. This design increases versatility and ease of use, allowing quick bit changes and stable, vibration-free operation.

Enhanced with a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, the 190-GFR provides exceptional lubricity, hardness, and wear resistance. The coating reduces friction, promotes efficient chip removal, and allows for faster, cooler drilling. The 135° self-centering split point ensures accurate starts, reduced thrust pressure, and cleaner, more precise holes.
