Norseman #2 Taper Shank Drill Bits (DB-100 Series)
Engineered for rigorous industrial and mobile service applications, Norseman #2 Taper Shank Drill Bits deliver exceptional performance, high torque transmission, and rigid alignment. Built specifically for professional up-fitters, municipal fleet maintenance shops, emergency vehicle fabrication (fire, EMS, and police), and heavy-duty truck service centers, these high-speed steel (HSS) taper shank bits eliminate chuck slip—ensuring maximum power transfer when drilling through thick structural steel, truck frames, and heavy-gauge metals.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Morse Taper #2 (#2 MT) Shank: Provides a self-holding, secure friction fit directly into heavy drill presses and industrial lathe tailstocks, offering superior concentricity and zero slippage under extreme loads.
-
Premium High-Speed Steel (HSS): Expertly heat-treated for maximum wear resistance and edge retention, handling continuous production demands in busy fleet and up-fitting facilities.
-
Precision 118-Degree Point: Designed for fast penetration, self-centering accuracy, and reliable chip evacuation across thick chassis steel, brackets, and structural up-fit components.
-
Built for Mobile & Municipal Fleets: Trusted by public works departments, utility fleets, and emergency vehicle manufacturers who demand absolute reliability in structural fabrication and field repairs.

Pro Tip: Ensure the taper socket in your machine spindle is clean and free of debris before seating the Norseman #2 taper shank. A firm tap with a soft-faced mallet will lock the taper securely in place, and a standard drift key can be used for quick and safe removal during high-turnover shop shifts.
