Eagle Cutting Tool H200-016-D Hss Jobber Drill Bit 0.25 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL H200-016-D is a heavy-duty high-speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit with a 135-degree split point and a 0.25-inch diameter. Manufactured in the USA, this bit is built for production drilling in metal, wood, and hard plastics. The 135-degree split point reduces walking at drill entry, eliminates the need for a center punch on most surfaces, and lowers thrust load during penetration. The heavy-duty designation indicates a reinforced web and body geometry designed for extended tool life under demanding conditions. This bit is suited for machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, electricians, and maintenance technicians who need consistent performance in a standard jobber-length format.

The H200-016-D is appropriate for use in hand-held power drills, drill presses, and magnetic-base drills on job sites and in shop environments. Typical applications include drilling through structural steel, sheet metal, iron pipe fittings, and framing hardware. The 0.25-inch diameter is a high-demand size across mechanical, electrical, and plumbing trades for pilot holes, clearance holes, and anchor-bolt layout. This bit is well suited for both residential and commercial construction and maintenance work where precision entry and clean exit holes are required.

Key Features

• 135-degree split point reduces bit walking and eliminates center-punch requirement on most materials
• Heavy-duty construction with reinforced web for extended service life under high drill-press and hand-drill loads
• High-speed steel (HSS) composition provides heat resistance during continuous metal drilling
• 0.25-inch diameter covers a wide range of clearance, pilot, and layout hole applications
• Jobber-length flute design balances reach with rigidity for accurate hole geometry
• Made in the USA

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 0.25-inch jobber-length drill bit compatible with any 3-jaw chuck drill rated for 0.25-inch shanks, including hand drills, drill presses, and magnetic-base drills.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist, electrician, pipefitter, or qualified maintenance technician should select the appropriate drill speed (RPM) for the material being drilled. Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped before drilling to prevent rotation and injury. Disengage and lock out all power to the drill before changing or inspecting bits. Use cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup.
