Cleveland C03013 Jobber Length Drill Bit Wire 22 Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C03013 is a jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in a wide range of materials. Built from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it carries a wire gauge size of 22, equivalent to 0.1570 inches in decimal. The 118-degree standard point angle and web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduce entry force and improve centering on the workpiece. The fast spiral flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation, making this bit a reliable choice for production and maintenance drilling applications installed by machinists, millwrights, and general tradespeople.

This drill bit is well suited for drilling aluminum and similarly machinable materials in both shop and field settings. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks on handheld drills, drill presses, and CNC equipment. At 3.125 inches overall length with a 2-inch flute length and a 1.125-inch shank length, it fits comfortably in compact drill presses and portable setups alike. The right-hand cutting direction is compatible with conventional clockwise-rotating spindles found across standard equipment.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size 22 (0.1570 inches) with a diameter tolerance of -0.0007 to 0.0000 inches for consistent hole sizing
• High speed steel construction provides durability across general-purpose drilling tasks
• 118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced thrust and improved self-centering
• Fast spiral, 2-flute design promotes chip clearance in aluminum and similar workpiece materials
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional accuracy
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters
• Conforms to ASME B94.11M and ANSI specification designations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style jobber-length drill bit for use in standard 3-jaw drill chucks on handheld drills, drill presses, and machining centers accepting straight-cylindrical shanks sized at 0.1570 inches.

Installation Notes

Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in the drill chuck before operation and verify chuck key is removed prior to powering on the tool. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling metals to extend bit life and maintain hole quality. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use — a damaged point should be resharpened or the bit replaced to maintain dimensional accuracy. Operate at spindle speeds appropriate for the workpiece material and bit diameter per standard machining reference tables.
