The CLEVELAND C03057 is a jobber-length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastics. It is manufactured from high speed steel with a bright finish and features a 118-degree standard point angle with web thinning for easier penetration and reduced thrust. The right-hand spiral flute with fast helix geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation. The straight cylindrical shank measures 0.2210 inches in diameter, matching the wire size 2 designation at 0.2210 inches. Licensed HVAC technicians, machinists, plumbers, and electricians reach for jobber-length bits like this for general shop and field drilling tasks.

Common uses include drilling pilot holes for fasteners, conduit mounting, bracket installation, and general metalwork. The ANSI-specification construction and fast spiral flute type make it a reliable choice in drill presses, handheld power drills, and cordless drivers used daily on job sites and in service vans. It is sold individually with no minimum order requirement beyond a single unit.
