Eagle Cutting Tool SCD100-020-D Carbide Jobber Drill 5/16

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL SCD100-020-D is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit with a 5/16 inch diameter, manufactured in the USA. Solid carbide construction provides significantly greater hardness and wear resistance than high-speed steel, making this bit well suited for drilling harder workpiece materials at higher cutting speeds. The jobber-length geometry offers a practical balance of flute length and rigidity for general-purpose hole-making in production and maintenance environments. This drill is installed and operated by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance professionals working with drill presses, CNC machining centers, and handheld power tools.

This drill bit is appropriate for use in metalworking, fabrication shops, and industrial maintenance settings where consistent hole quality and tool life in harder or abrasive materials are priorities. The 5/16 inch diameter suits a wide range of fastener clearance holes, tapped-hole preparation, and general through-hole applications in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, composites, and similar materials. USA manufacture indicates domestic production standards for carbide grade and geometry consistency.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for superior hardness and extended tool life compared to HSS
• 5/16 inch diameter jobber-length geometry for general-purpose drilling applications
• USA manufactured for consistent carbide grade and dimensional accuracy
• Compatible with standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting 5/16 inch shanks
• Suitable for ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and composite materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit solid carbide jobber drill for use in any drill press, CNC machining center, or power tool equipped with a chuck or collet system that accepts a 5/16 inch diameter straight shank.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance professionals familiar with speeds and feeds for solid carbide tooling. Ensure the machine spindle and chuck or collet are fully stopped and de-energized before inserting or removing the drill bit. Solid carbide is brittle compared to HSS and should not be subjected to lateral loading or impact; use rigid setups and avoid hand-feeding with excessive force. Confirm proper chuck or collet runout before beginning a drilling operation to maximize tool life and hole quality.
