Eagle Cutting Tool T500-018-I Hss Ti-coated Jobber Drill 9/32

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL T500-018-I is a 9/32-inch high-speed steel jobber-length drill bit with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating. The TiN coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction, extending tool life compared to uncoated HSS bits. Jobber-length geometry provides a balanced combination of reach and rigidity, making this bit suitable for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastics. It is a standard import-grade bit intended for production shops, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who need reliable everyday tooling without the cost of premium domestic stock.

This drill bit is suited for use in hand drills, drill presses, and CNC drilling applications where a 9/32-inch diameter hole is required. Common applications include drilling pilot holes, clearance holes for fasteners, and through-holes in light structural and sheet metal fabrication. The 9/32-inch size corresponds to a standard fractional diameter frequently used in mechanical and electrical trade work for conduit support hardware, bracket mounting, and general assembly tasks.

Key Features

• 9/32-inch diameter jobber-length geometry for general-purpose drilling
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for heat and wear resistance
• Titanium nitride (TiN) coating increases surface hardness and reduces cutting friction
• Compatible with standard drill chucks accepting straight-shank bits
• Minimum order quantity of 1, available as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard straight-shank jobber drill bit compatible with any drill press, hand drill, or CNC spindle chuck accepting a 9/32-inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation of this drill bit is performed by a machinist, fabricator, or trade technician using a compatible drill chuck. Ensure the drill press or hand drill is powered off and the chuck key is removed before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to maintain coating integrity and extend bit life. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement and bit breakage.
