Eagle Cutting Tool TAC40-212-I L Hss Jobber Drill

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL TAC40-212-I is an L-size high-speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. Jobber-length drills offer a balanced combination of flute length and rigidity, making them a standard choice across fabrication, maintenance, and installation work. The HSS construction provides adequate hardness and heat resistance for drilling mild steel, aluminum, and similar materials at moderate speeds. At 0.15 pounds, the bit is lightweight and fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks used in handheld and bench-mounted drilling equipment.

This jobber drill is suited for trade professionals who need a reliable general-purpose bit for on-site or shop drilling tasks. Typical applications include sheet metal work, conduit and bracket installation, plumbing rough-in, and HVAC equipment fabrication. The L drill size designation corresponds to a specific fractional-equivalent diameter, making it appropriate for clearance holes, pilot holes, and through-hole applications where that size is specified by a job drawing or fitting requirement.

Key Features

• L-size designation for precise hole diameter control in clearance and pilot-hole applications
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction resists heat buildup during moderate-speed drilling
• Jobber length provides a practical balance of reach and bit rigidity
• Fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks on handheld drills and drill presses
• Lightweight at 0.15 pounds for easy handling and tool-bag portability

Compatibility

Designed as a standard L-size HSS jobber drill suitable for use in any 3-jaw keyed or keyless drill chuck that accommodates the corresponding shank diameter.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and used by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general-trade mechanics. Always secure the workpiece before drilling and use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edges before use and replace the bit if chipping or dulling is evident. Follow applicable workplace safety standards when operating drilling equipment.
