Cleveland C72025 Jobber Drill Bit 25/64 in Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C72025 is a jobber-length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it delivers consistent cutting performance across a wide range of materials. The bit features a 118-degree standard point angle, a web-thinned tip for easier penetration and reduced thrust, and a regular spiral flute to evacuate chips efficiently. At 5.125 inches overall length with a 3.75-inch flute, it fits standard drill chucks and magnetic drill presses used in fabrication, mechanical, and maintenance work. Manufactured to ASME B94.11M and DIN 338 standards.

This bit is suited for residential and commercial trade applications where a reliable general-purpose drill bit is needed. Common install and fabrication scenarios include drilling pilot holes, clearance holes, and through-holes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard 3-jaw chucks on corded drills, drill presses, and right-angle drill attachments. It is a practical choice for HVAC installers, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors who need a dependable bit for sheet metal, structural steel, and wood framing tasks.
