Eagle Cutting Tool S400-018-I Hss Stub Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL S400-018-I is a 9/32-inch high-speed steel (HSS) stub jobber drill bit ground with a 135-degree split-point tip. The stub-length body is shorter than a standard jobber bit, which reduces deflection and improves rigidity when drilling in tight clearance areas or on hard, smooth surfaces. The 135-degree split-point starts on contact without a center punch, reducing walking on metal surfaces. This bit is suited for use in hand drills, drill presses, and CNC equipment by machinists, pipefitters, electricians, and general trade professionals working in metal, wood, and plastics.

The S400-018-I is appropriate for light to medium drilling tasks in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and wood. Its stub length makes it a preferred choice when a standard-length bit is too long for the application, such as drilling in recessed panels, junction boxes, or confined mechanical spaces. The bit accepts standard 3-jaw drill chucks compatible with 9/32-inch shank sizes.

Key Features

• 9/32-inch diameter HSS stub jobber length for rigidity in tight spaces
• 135-degree split-point tip starts on contact without center punching
• High-speed steel construction handles heat generated during metal drilling
• Stub body reduces deflection compared to standard jobber-length bits
• Compatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 9/32-inch stub jobber drill bit suitable for use in any hand drill, drill press, or CNC spindle accepting that shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Drill bits of this type are installed by machinists, electricians, pipefitters, and general trade technicians using hand drills or stationary drill presses. Secure the bit firmly in the chuck and verify it is centered before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Always wear eye protection and follow applicable shop safety procedures when operating rotary cutting tools.
