Built from high speed steel with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, the bit delivers extended tool life and reduced friction when drilling through ferrous and hard metals. The 135-degree split point starts on contact without walking, eliminating the need for a center punch on most surfaces. At 2.75 inches overall length with a 1.625-inch flute length, it fits standard drill chucks and magnetic drill rigs. The straight-cylindrical shank and web-thinned, tapered web construction reduce thrust and improve chip evacuation in demanding materials. This is a heavy-duty grade bit built to NAS 907 Type B standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 41608 is suited for drilling cast iron, stainless steel, and carbon steel in production, maintenance, and fabrication environments. Licensed trades including pipefitters, ironworkers, HVAC sheet metal mechanics, and maintenance electricians reach for this bit when working through structural steel, equipment housings, and welded assemblies. The 0.125-inch diameter makes it a standard choice for pilot holes, small fastener clearances, and conduit knockout preparation in tight spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with titanium nitride coating for extended wear life in ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point starts on contact, reducing walking and eliminating center-punch steps on hard surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces drilling thrust and improves chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, 2-flute regular spiral design clears chips efficiently in cast iron, stainless steel, and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NAS 907 Type B specification for consistent dimensional tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks, drill presses, and magnetic base drills.

Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel or cast iron to manage heat and extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use; a dull bit on stainless steel work-hardens the material and accelerates bit failure. Follow applicable OSHA machine guarding requirements when operating drill presses or magnetic base drills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches (1\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.13 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAS 907 Type B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150ASP-TN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CHICAGO-LATROBE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 41608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749536858418,"sku":"41608","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b633ec229b8b1b79cd7405d498b4585f.jpg?v=1788907344","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-41608-1-8-inch-jobber-drill-bit-hss-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
