Eagle Cutting Tool D250-028-D Hss Drill Bit 7/16 Inch

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL D250-028-D is a 7/16-inch high-speed steel (HSS) drill bit built for demanding drilling applications in metal, wood, and composite materials. Featuring a 135-degree split point, this bit self-centers on contact, reducing the need for a center punch and minimizing walking on hard or slick surfaces. It is manufactured in the USA. Tradespeople working in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical work will find this bit suited for clean, accurate hole starting in sheet metal, structural steel, and similar substrates.

This drill bit is designed for use with standard drill chucks in handheld power drills, drill presses, and magnetic base drills. The 7/16-inch diameter makes it a common choice for conduit knockouts, bolt clearance holes, and anchor pilot holes in light structural applications. Its HSS construction handles the heat generated during metal drilling better than carbon steel alternatives, extending service life under continuous use.

Key Features

• 7/16-inch diameter for bolt clearance, conduit, and anchor pilot hole applications
• 135-degree split point self-centers on contact, reducing walk-off on hard surfaces
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction resists heat buildup during extended metal drilling
• Made in the USA
• Compatible with standard drill chucks in handheld and bench-mounted drilling equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 7/16-inch HSS drill bit compatible with any drill chuck accepting straight-shank bits of that diameter, including handheld power drills and drill presses used in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trade work.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and removed by a licensed or experienced trade technician using a keyed or keyless drill chuck. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling through steel to extend bit life and reduce heat. Always wear eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling.
