   Lowe's and manufacturing partner J.H. Williams launched Kobalt in 1998, [1] with the intention of competing against rival retailers Sears and The Home Depot and their respective Craftsman and Husky tool brands. [2] In 2003, the Danaher Corporation began producing the majority of Kobalt hand tools. [3] [4]

3. Drill bit sizes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_sizes

   For Morse taper-shank drill bits, the standard continues in 1/64 inch increments up to 1¾ inch, then 1/32 inch increments up to 2¼ inch, 1/16 inch increments up to 3 inches, 1/8 inch increments up to 3¼ inches, and a single 1/4 inch increment to 3½ inches. One aspect of this method of sizing is that the size increment between drill bits ...

4. List of drill and tap sizes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_drill_and_tap_sizes

   Such an appropriately sized drill is called a tap drill for that size of thread, because it is a correct drill to be followed by the tap. Many thread sizes have several possible tap drills, because they yield threads of varying thread depth between 50% and 100%. Usually thread depths of 60% to 75% are desired.

5. Drill bit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit

   Twist drill bits are available in standard lengths, referred to as Stub-length or Screw-Machine-length (short), the extremely common Jobber-length (medium), and Taper-length or Long-Series (long). Most drill bits for consumer use have straight shanks. For heavy duty drilling in industry, bits with tapered shanks are sometimes used. Other types ...

6. Tap and die - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_and_die

   Without a tap drill chart, you can compute the correct tap drill diameter with: T D = M D − 1 N {\displaystyle TD=MD-{\frac {1}{N}}} where T D {\displaystyle TD} is the tap drill size, M D {\displaystyle MD} is the major diameter of the tap (e.g., 3 ⁄ 8 in for a 3 ⁄ 8 -16 tap), and 1 / N {\displaystyle 1/N} is the thread pitch ( 1 ⁄ 16 ...

7. Brace (tool) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brace_(tool)

   A brace and bit can be used to drill wider and deeper holes than can a geared hand-powered drill. The cost of the greater torque is lower rotational speed; it is easy for a geared hand drill to achieve a rotational speed of several hundred revolutions per minute , while it would require considerable effort to achieve even 100 rpm with a brace.
