Eagle Cutting Tool TAC40-224-I Hss Jobber Drill Bit X

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL TAC40-224-I is a high-speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit in size X. HSS construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. Jobber-length geometry offers the balance of reach and rigidity that trade professionals rely on for consistent, accurate holes in production and maintenance drilling. This bit is suited for use in standard drill chucks and magnetic drill presses across a wide range of shop and field applications.

The TAC40-224-I is appropriate for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors who need a dependable letter-size drill bit for conduit, pipe bracket, and equipment mounting work. Letter size X falls in the upper range of the letter drill series, making it well suited for tapping and clearance-hole applications that require a precisely sized bore. It is an import-grade bit designed for cost-effective use in high-turnover tooling inventories.

Installation Notes

Install and tighten the bit securely in the chuck before use to prevent slipping under load. Always wear appropriate eye protection when drilling. Use cutting fluid when drilling into ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole quality. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace when the bit no longer cuts cleanly.
