Chicago-latrobe 69876 Jobber Drill Bit Set 29 Pc Hss

Product Description

The CHICAGO-LATROBE 69876 is a 29-piece jobber length drill bit set built from high speed steel (HSS) for general-purpose metalworking and multipurpose drilling applications. The bits feature a standard 118-degree split point angle and a bright, uncoated finish. Shank type is straight, keeping the set compatible with standard drill chucks without adapters. Size range runs from 1/16 inch to 1/2 inch in 1/64-inch step increments, covering the most common hole sizes encountered in fabrication, maintenance, and service work. The set ships in a metal or plastic indexed case that keeps bits organized and protected between uses.

This set is suited for residential and commercial metalworking, general maintenance, and multipurpose drilling tasks. The 1/64-inch step increments across 29 sizes give technicians and tradespeople the sizing flexibility needed for fastener clearance holes, pilot holes, and material prep across a wide range of metals and general materials. The left-hand cutting direction is noted in the product data and should be confirmed against the application before use. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general maintenance professionals will find this range covers the bulk of field drilling requirements.

Installation Notes

Drill bits in this set should be installed in a properly rated drill or drill press with the chuck fully tightened before operation. Confirm the cutting direction matches the drill motor rotation before use, as these bits are noted as left-hand cutting. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling. Inspect bits for wear or damage before each use and replace any bit that shows chipping, cracking, or excessive wear.
