Eagle Cutting Tool SCD100-004-D Carbide Jobber Drill 1/16 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL SCD100-004-D is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit sized at 1/16 inch. Solid carbide construction delivers significantly harder cutting edges than high-speed steel, making this bit well suited for drilling ferrous metals, stainless steel, cast iron, hardened alloys, and abrasive composites. The jobber-length flute geometry balances reach with rigidity, reducing deflection on small-diameter bores. Manufactured in the USA, this drill is intended for use by machinists, tool-and-die professionals, and trade contractors who require consistent hole quality in demanding materials.

This drill bit is appropriate for precision drilling operations in both production and maintenance environments. Common applications include drilling pilot holes in metal fabrication, HVAC equipment assembly, electrical panel work, and plumbing fixture installation where tight tolerances are required. The 1/16-inch diameter is a standard size for small fastener clearance holes and precision location work. It is suited for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and rigid hand-drill setups where runout is controlled.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for superior hardness and wear resistance compared to HSS alternatives
• 1/16-inch diameter jobber-length geometry balances depth capability with bit rigidity
• USA manufactured for consistent dimensional tolerances
• Suitable for ferrous metals, stainless steel, hardened alloys, and abrasive materials
• Compatible with CNC machining centers and conventional drill press setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct upgrade for standard 1/16-inch jobber drill applications in metalworking and trade service environments.

Installation Notes

Solid carbide drill bits are brittle and require rigid setups with minimal runout — avoid use in handheld drills without a guide bushing on small diameters. Always use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling ferrous and stainless materials to extend bit life. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent walking or breakage. Follow applicable shop safety practices and machine guarding requirements when operating rotating tooling.
