Hertel H95006000 Jobber Drill Bit 1/16 Inch Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL H95006000 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose holemaking in metal, wood, and plastic. It features a 1/16 inch diameter, a 137-degree split point for self-centering entry, and an oxide finish that reduces friction and heat buildup during drilling. The 2-flute spiral design provides efficient chip evacuation throughout the cut. At 1-7/8 inches overall length with a 3/4 inch flute length, this bit is sized for standard jobber applications. It is rated as heavy duty grade and conforms to ANSI specifications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators commonly use this size for light-duty hole work in production and shop environments.

This drill bit is suited for holemaking operations in general metalworking, light fabrication, maintenance and repair, and production drilling. The 1/16 inch size handles small-diameter holes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The right-hand cutting direction and regular spiral flute type make it compatible with standard drill presses, hand drills, and CNC equipment. The split point geometry reduces walking on entry without a center punch, which speeds up workflow on repetitive tasks.

Key Features

• 1/16 inch diameter with 0.0625 decimal inch measurement for precise sizing
• 137-degree split point reduces walking and eliminates need for center punch on most materials
• High speed steel construction with oxide coating for reduced friction and extended tool life
• 2-flute regular spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Heavy duty grade construction built for demanding production use
• Conforms to ANSI specification designation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ANSI jobber-length drill bit compatible with any 3-jaw or collet-style chuck accepting 1/16 inch shank diameters, including drill presses, hand drills, and CNC spindles.

Installation Notes

Installation of this drill bit should be performed by a qualified machinist or technician familiar with rotating tool safety. Ensure the chuck is fully tightened and the workpiece is securely clamped before beginning any drilling operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid for ferrous materials to extend bit life and improve hole quality. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if damage is observed.
