Another size related feature to focus on is the size of the drill bit, as we mentioned earlier. The most common drill bit sizes are 1/16 to 1/4″ and most large sets will also include increments up to 1/2″ thick.
How big is a drill bit?
Drill bit sizes are written down on paper and etched onto bits as irreducible fractions. So, instead of 78/64 inch, or 1 14/64 inch, the size is noted as 1 7/32 inch . Below is a chart providing the decimal-fraction equivalents that are most relevant to fractional-inch drill bit sizes (that is, 0 to 1 by 64ths).
What are the standard drill sizes?
Range 1 (R1) is shortest in length, more common for sizing production tubing or casing, and ranges from 18 to 22 ft. Range 2 (R2) is considered the standard length for drill pipe and ranges from 27 to 31 ft. Range 3 (R3) is common in casing and also deployed in deep water drilling applications.
