Cleveland C01035 Jobber Length Drill Bit Wire 69 Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C01035 is a jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials. Built from high speed steel with an oxide coating, this bit measures 1-3/8 inches overall length with a 1/2-inch flute length. It carries a wire gauge designation of 69, equal to 0.0292 inches in decimal, making it suited for fine-diameter hole work where precision sizing matters. The standard 118-degree point angle provides reliable entry geometry across a broad range of metal workpiece materials. A two-flute spiral configuration with web-thinned, tapered web construction promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces feed force. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance trades reach for this size when drilling tap pilot holes or clearance holes in tight-tolerance work.

The C01035 is sized for light metalworking operations typical in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and production machining environments. Primary listed workpiece materials are cast iron and steel. The straight-cylindrical shank seats in standard drill chucks on bench drills, drill presses, and hand-held electric drills. The 0.0292-inch diameter and 1-3/8-inch overall length make this bit a common choice when small-diameter, accurate holes are required in structural or machine components. It is part of Cleveland Series 2002, a general-purpose HSS jobber line manufactured to ASME B94.11M and DIN 338 standards.

Key Features

• Wire size 69 (0.0292 inches decimal) for fine-diameter precision drilling
• High speed steel construction with oxide coating for corrosion resistance and lubricity
• 118-degree standard point angle for broad metal compatibility
• Two-flute regular spiral design with web-thinned, tapered web for improved chip clearance
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters
• Conforms to ASME B94.11M and DIN 338 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style general-purpose jobber-length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks accommodating straight-cylindrical shanks at 0.0292 inches diameter. Suitable for cast iron and steel workpieces as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using any drill press, CNC drill, or hand drill equipped with a standard keyless or keyed chuck. Secure the shank fully into the chuck before operation and verify runout before drilling to protect this small-diameter bit from deflection or breakage. Use cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine guarding requirements when operating rotating cutting tools.
