Re: 0.502" Drill bit?
Question.....What material is the shaft? If it's aluminum, it will tend to be barely just too big. Steel .5" shaft fits perfectly though....at least that's my experience. I got a flywheel machined and tried to put it on a .5" aluminum shaft and it barely wouldn't fit. So I took it to home depot to try and find another aluminum shaft that might fit (different batch, right?). All of them gave the same result. So I tried the steel shaft, and it fit perfectly.
