Eagle Cutting Tool 1208XL-021-I Hss Drill Bit 21/64 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL 1208XL-021-I is a high-speed steel (HSS) twist drill bit designed for metal drilling applications in trade and industrial environments. With a 21/64 inch diameter, a 5 inch flute length, and an 8 inch overall length (OAL), this bit handles deeper reach requirements where standard-length drills fall short. The HSS construction provides adequate hardness and heat resistance for drilling mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials. Electricians, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general contractors typically keep extended-length drill bits like this on hand for through-hole work in structural members and panels.

This drill bit suits residential and light commercial jobsite use where standard drill lengths cannot reach the work zone. The extended OAL makes it particularly useful for drilling through wall studs, HVAC sheet metal, electrical enclosures, and plumbing rough-in applications. It is compatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks that accept fractional shank sizes. The import designation reflects the manufacturing origin and positions this bit as a cost-effective option for high-turnover or consumable-use applications.

Key Features

• 21/64 inch diameter for fractional sizing common in trade drilling applications
• 5 inch flute length supports chip evacuation in deeper holes
• 8 inch overall length provides extended reach past standard drill bit sizing
• High-speed steel construction resists heat buildup during metal drilling
• Minimum order quantity of 1 allows single-unit purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use drill bit compatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks accepting fractional shank sizes in corded and cordless drill drivers and drill presses.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and operated by any trade professional using a corded drill, cordless drill, or drill press with a compatible chuck. Secure the shank firmly in the chuck before operation and confirm the bit is centered before applying feed pressure. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat. Always wear eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling.
