Hertel C.402.0360 Jobber Drill Bit 3.60 Mm Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL C.402.0360 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. It features a 3.60 mm diameter (0.1417 inches) with a 118-degree standard point angle and an oxide coating that reduces friction and helps shed heat during cutting. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard three-jaw chucks. With a 2-flute spiral design and right-hand cutting direction, this bit clears chips efficiently through a 48 mm flute length. Overall length is 76 mm. It is a standard shop-floor drill bit suited for machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators.

This jobber drill fits general-purpose drilling applications in light manufacturing, maintenance and repair operations, and fabrication environments. The 3.60 mm diameter falls within the 3.00 mm to 4.00 mm size range, making it useful for clearance holes, pilot holes, and through-hole drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The oxide finish provides basic surface protection suitable for standard shop conditions. Individual units are packaged one per unit with a minimum order quantity of 12 pieces, making this bit appropriate for stocking at tool cribs or service vans.

Key Features

• 3.60 mm diameter with 0.1417 inch decimal equivalent for cross-reference convenience
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose material entry
• High speed steel construction handles moderate heat and cutting loads
• Oxide coating reduces friction and surface wear during drilling
• 2-flute spiral geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill compatible with any standard three-jaw drill chuck or collet system accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 3.00 mm to 4.00 mm size range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, fabricators, or maintenance technicians using a drill press, hand drill, or mill with an appropriate chuck. Ensure the workpiece is secured before drilling and verify chuck jaws are fully tightened on the shank before operation. Do not exceed the recommended feed and speed parameters for the material being drilled. Worn or damaged bits should be replaced rather than sharpened unless proper drill-grinding equipment is available.
