Hertel H95006201 Jobber Drill Bit Letter B 0.2380 in

Product Description

The HERTEL H95006201 is a letter B jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose holemaking in metal, wood, and composite materials. It is manufactured from high speed steel with an oxide and TiN coating for improved wear resistance and heat dissipation. The 137-degree split point promotes accurate positioning at the start of a cut and reduces the thrust required to penetrate the workpiece. At 0.2380 inches in diameter with a 4-inch overall length and a 2-inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks and is sized for production and maintenance drilling operations. It is suited for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople.

This jobber drill is intended for holemaking applications across light manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments. The regular spiral flute promotes chip evacuation during drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The heavy-duty grade designation and ANSI specification compliance make it appropriate for shop floor and field use where consistent hole quality is required. It is sold individually and is compatible with standard drill press, hand drill, and CNC setup configurations.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style jobber drill bit replacement suitable for standard 3-jaw drill chucks across drill press, cordless drill, and CNC drilling applications in the 0.2000 to 0.2500 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Install and remove drill bits only when the drill press or power tool is fully de-energized and the chuck has stopped rotating. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and tighten with a chuck key before operation. Inspect the cutting edges and coating for wear or chipping before each use, as a damaged bit can produce out-of-tolerance holes and increase breakage risk. Follow applicable shop safety and PPE requirements when performing drilling operations.
