Built to M42 cobalt steel grade and coated with TiAlN for extended tool life, this bit runs a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and cutting pressure at entry. The parabolic flute geometry improves chip evacuation, which is critical when drilling deep holes in tough stock. At 1-7\/8 inches overall length with a 7\/8-inch flute length, this is a standard jobber-length configuration suited for handheld or machine drilling. The 1\/16-inch diameter straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is rated for cast iron and stainless steel as primary workpiece materials, making it a practical choice for plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and pipe fitters who regularly drill through hard ferrous stock. The heavy-duty grade designation and TiAlN coating make it appropriate for repeated use in production or field service environments where standard HSS bits wear prematurely. The right-hand cutting direction is compatible with all standard rotary drills and drill presses. Web-thinned and tapered web configuration reduces thrust requirements, which is especially useful at small diameters like 1\/16 inch where bit deflection is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt steel construction for heat resistance and hardness retention in tough materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating extends tool life when drilling stainless steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces bit walking and lowers entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eParabolic flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation during deep drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces cutting resistance at small diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B94.11M and DIN 338 standards for dimensional accuracy and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C16972 is designed for use in standard drill chucks accepting a 1\/16-inch straight-cylindrical shank. Primary workpiece materials are cast iron and stainless steel. It is part of the Cleveland 2075A series of TiAlN-coated cobalt jobber-length drill bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed by a licensed technician or qualified tradesperson using a standard keyless or keyed drill chuck. Ensure the drill is powered off and secured before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel to preserve coating life, noting that this bit does not support internal coolant-through delivery. Comply with applicable OSHA and shop safety requirements for rotating tool use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inch (0.0625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inch (0.0625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42 Grade)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2075A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B94.11M, DIN 338\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C16972\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689952313650,"sku":"C16972","price":18.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/623cbae05e0a5cc2d3a40d440b2a3831.jpg?v=1788265600","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c16972-1-16-inch-cobalt-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
