Cleveland C70165 Jobber Drill Bit Wire 32 Cobalt 135 Deg

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C70165 is a jobber length drill bit in wire gauge size 32, measuring 0.1160 inches in diameter, built for professional metalworking and precision drilling applications. Manufactured from M42 cobalt high-speed steel with a gold oxide coating, this bit delivers heat resistance and extended tool life in demanding materials. The 135-degree split point reduces walking and decreases thrust force at the start of the cut. Overall length is 2.75 inches, and the spiral flute design promotes chip evacuation during through-hole drilling. Licensed tradespeople and machinists working to NAS 907 Type J standards will recognize this as a heavy-duty production-grade tool.

The C70165 is suited for drilling aluminum and similar non-ferrous metals in production, maintenance, and repair environments. The right-hand spiral flute and web-thinned, tapered web construction allow it to perform in both hand-held and machine-mounted setups. With a straight-cylindrical shank diameter of 0.1160 inches, it fits standard drill chucks and collet holders without modification. This bit is sold individually and is appropriate for aerospace-adjacent work referencing NAS 907 specifications.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt steel construction for heat and wear resistance in metal drilling
• 135-degree split point reduces thrust and prevents bit walking on entry
• Gold oxide coating provides lubricity and surface protection
• Web-thinned tapered web improves chip flow and reduces cutting load
• Right-hand regular spiral flute with 1.625-inch flute length promotes chip evacuation
• Meets NAS 907 Type J specification for precision and heavy-duty applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style jobber length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting a 0.1160-inch straight-cylindrical shank, consistent with Series 2213 tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this drill bit should be performed by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, or qualified tradespeople familiar with metal cutting operations. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet before operation and verify runout is within tolerance. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous or hard non-ferrous materials to preserve coating and extend tool life. Do not exceed the recommended RPM range for the workpiece material and bit diameter.
