Cleveland C00962 Taper Length Drill Bit Set 29 Pc Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C00962 is a 29-piece taper length drill bit set designed for metalworking and general-purpose drilling applications. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide finish, these bits cover a size range from 1/16 inch to 1/2 inch in 1/64-inch step increments, giving technicians and machinists consistent coverage across common hole sizes. The taper length geometry provides additional rigidity over jobber-length bits while still offering the reach needed for deeper holes. Right-hand cutting direction and a 118-degree standard point angle make these suitable for a broad range of metals and general shop materials. All 29 drills store in an included metal case.

This set is used in metalworking shops, maintenance and repair facilities, and industrial production environments. Taper length drills are a common choice when jobber-length bits lack the necessary reach or when improved straightness in deep holes is required. The ANSI-specification design ensures dimensional consistency across the set. This set is appropriate for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, electricians, and plumbers who require reliable, general-purpose drilling in metal substrates on the job or in the shop.

Key Features

• 29-piece set covering 1/16 inch to 1/2 inch in 1/64-inch increments
• High-speed steel construction with oxide finish for heat and wear resistance
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose metalworking
• Taper length geometry for added rigidity and straighter holes versus jobber-length bits
• Straight shank compatible with standard drill chucks
• ANSI specification designation for dimensional consistency
• Includes metal storage case for organization and transport

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose taper length drill bit set for use with standard drill chucks in metalworking, maintenance, and multipurpose drilling applications. Straight shank design fits conventional keyed and keyless chucks across a wide range of drill presses and handheld drills.

Installation Notes

Secure the bit firmly in the drill chuck before use and verify the chuck key is removed prior to powering the tool. Always wear appropriate eye protection when drilling metal. Use cutting fluid or coolant where required by the workpiece material to extend bit life and improve hole quality. This set does not support coolant-through operation.
