Cleveland C71141 Jobber Length Drill Bit Wire 41 Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C71141 is a wire gauge size 41 jobber length drill bit designed for general-purpose metal drilling in trade and production shop environments. Manufactured from high speed steel with an oxide coating, the bit measures 0.0960 inches in diameter and 2.375 inches overall. The 118-degree standard point angle and web-thinned, tapered web geometry reduce entry force and improve chip ejection. The spiral flute, right-hand cut configuration is the standard for use in conventional drill presses, hand drills, and CNC drilling setups. Machinists, tool-and-die techs, HVAC fabricators, and electricians reaching for small-diameter hole work will find this bit a reliable general-purpose choice.

The C71141 is suited for general-purpose drilling in mild steel, aluminum, plastics, and similar materials where a wire gauge 41 diameter hole is required. The straight-cylindrical shank seats in standard three-jaw chucks without modification. The 1.375-inch flute length accommodates typical shallow-to-moderate depth holes in sheet metal, brackets, and structural components encountered in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work. This bit is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 12 units per purchase.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this drill bit should be performed by a qualified machinist or tradesperson familiar with rotating cutting tools. Always secure the workpiece before drilling and ensure the chuck is tightened to rated specification. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or damage before each use and replace bits that show chipping or deformation. Follow applicable shop safety codes and wear appropriate eye protection when operating drilling equipment.
