Eagle Cutting Tool C300-017-D Cobalt Jobber Drill 17/64

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL C300-017-D is a 17/64 inch cobalt jobber-length drill bit manufactured in the USA. Cobalt construction gives the bit added heat and wear resistance compared to standard high-speed steel, making it suited for drilling stainless steel, cast iron, hardened alloys, and other tough materials encountered in mechanical and trade work. The jobber-length flute geometry provides a balance of rigidity and reach for general-purpose hole-making in both bench and portable drill applications. Licensed tradespeople and skilled machinists working in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and industrial fabrication reach for cobalt bits when standard HSS tooling wears too quickly.

This drill bit is appropriate for use in a wide range of trade and light industrial applications where a 17/64 inch diameter hole is required. Typical uses include pilot holes for fasteners, clearance holes for pipe and conduit fittings, and general metal fabrication tasks. Its jobber-length configuration makes it compatible with standard drill chucks found on benchtop drill presses and handheld power drills. Domestic manufacture supports consistent dimensional tolerances and point geometry across the production run.

Key Features

• 17/64 inch diameter cobalt construction for superior heat and wear resistance
• Jobber-length flute design balances rigidity with adequate drilling depth
• Suited for stainless steel, cast iron, and hardened alloys
• Manufactured in the USA for consistent dimensional tolerances
• Compatible with standard drill chucks on benchtop and handheld equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose cobalt jobber drill for use with standard 3/8 inch or 1/2 inch keyed or keyless drill chucks on benchtop drill presses and handheld power drills.

Installation Notes

Secure the bit fully in the drill chuck and verify it is centered before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling hardened or stainless materials to extend tool life and reduce heat buildup. Always wear eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling. Follow applicable shop safety standards for rotating cutting tools.
