Cle-line C22732 Jobber Drill Bit 19/64 Inch Hss

Product Description

The CLE-LINE C22732 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in steel and cast iron. It carries a 118-degree standard point angle with web thinning for easier penetration and reduced thrust. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and helps retain cutting oil during use. At 4.375 inches overall length with a 3.0625-inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks and magnetic drill presses without modification. The straight cylindrical shank measures 19/64 inch in diameter, matching the drill diameter. This bit is suited for maintenance technicians, fabricators, and trade professionals who need a reliable general-purpose twist drill for ferrous materials.

The C22732 is intended for drilling steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous workpiece materials in maintenance, repair, and general fabrication settings. The regular spiral flute and right-hand cutting direction make it compatible with standard drill presses, hand drills, and CNC drill heads running conventional rotation. The Series 1899 designation places it within a well-established jobber-length family built to ASME B94.11M and DIN 338 dimensional standards. It is sold individually and is appropriate for shop toolboxes, service vans, and job-site drill indexes where a reliable fractional-size bit is needed.
