Cleveland C71233 Jobber Length Drill Bit 2.8 Mm Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C71233 is a jobber length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and similar materials. It measures 2.8 mm (0.1102 inches) in diameter with an overall length of 2.402 inches and a flute length of 1.299 inches. Manufactured from high speed steel with an oxide coating, it features a 118-degree standard point angle and a two-flute spiral configuration. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. This bit is intended for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who require a reliable, general-purpose drill in common metric sizing.

The C71233 is suited for general-purpose drilling applications in light industrial, maintenance, and trade environments. Its 2.8 mm diameter falls within the 2.00 mm to 3.00 mm size range and conforms to ASME B94.11M and DIN 338 standards, making it appropriate for applications where metric drill sizing and dimensional consistency are required. The web-thinned, tapered-web design reduces thrust at the point and is typical for production and repair drilling tasks. Each package contains one bit.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber length drill bit conforming to DIN 338 and ASME B94.11M, suitable for use in standard drill chucks accepting a 0.1102-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or trade professionals using a standard drill press, hand drill, or CNC spindle with an appropriately sized chuck. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify chuck key removal before starting the machine. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or damage before each use, and replace the bit if the point shows chipping or dulling that affects cut quality.
