Norseman Drill & Tool Type 280-MRO Fractional Sizes Silver & Deming Drill: Built Tough for the MRO Professional

The Norseman Drill & Tool Type 280-MRO Silver & Deming Drill is engineered specifically for the Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) market. This heavy-duty drill features a shorter 5" overall length, making it a more compact, rigid, and durable option compared to standard Silver & Deming drills—perfect for tight spaces and tough conditions.

Manufactured in the USA from premium high-speed steel, the 280-MRO features a 1/2" reduced shank, compatible with standard drill chucks, and three flats on the shank to prevent slippage during high-torque drilling. This ensures secure chucking, enhanced safety, and consistent power transfer.

The 135° split point allows for quick starts without walking, eliminating the need for pilot holes and making it ideal for hand-held and press drilling alike. Surface-treated flutes improve chip evacuation, reduce friction, and extend tool life when drilling through steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other common shop materials.
