Eagle Cutting Tool S404-103-D Hss Stub Drill Bit

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL S404-103-D is a Number 3 high-speed steel (HSS) stub-length drill bit with a 135-degree split point. Stub drills are shorter than jobber-length bits, which reduces flex and improves rigidity in tight spaces or on CNC and drill press setups. The 135-degree split point geometry self-centers on contact, eliminating the need for a center punch on most materials. This bit is manufactured in the USA and is suited for machinists, pipefitters, electricians, and general trade professionals who need consistent, accurate holes in steel, iron, and other metals.

Stub-length drill bits like the S404-103-D are commonly used in production machining, sheet metal fabrication, and mechanical trade work where a standard jobber bit would be too long or too flexible. The reduced flute length and overall shorter body make this bit well suited for drill press, mill, or hand-drill applications where precise hole placement and reduced deflection are priorities. It is an appropriate choice for drilling ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both shop and field environments.

Key Features

• 135-degree split point self-centers on contact for accurate hole placement
• Stub length reduces bit flex and improves rigidity compared to jobber-length bits
• USA manufactured
• Minimum order quantity of 1, available as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard stub-length HSS drill bit suitable for use with drill presses, CNC machines, mills, and hand drills accepting a matching shank size.

Installation Notes

Installation of this drill bit should be performed by a qualified machinist or trade professional familiar with rotating cutting tools. Ensure the drill or machine is fully powered down and the chuck is secured before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling hardened or thick stock to extend bit life and maintain hole quality. Always wear eye protection when operating drilling equipment.
