Import -22355-B Jobber Drill Bit 3/32 in Hss 118 Deg

Product Description

The IMPORT -22355-B is a jobber-length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it measures 3/32 inches (0.0938 inches decimal) in diameter and 2.25 inches overall length. The 118-degree standard point angle is the industry-standard geometry for versatile material entry, and the tapered web with web-thinned point reduces thrust and improves chip clearance. Right-hand cut with a regular spiral flute, this bit is suited for use in handheld drills and drill presses in both shop and field environments.

This drill bit is intended for general-purpose production and maintenance drilling. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without modification. With a flute length of 1.25 inches and an overall length of 2.25 inches, it falls within the jobber-length class, making it appropriate for through-holes and shallow blind holes in light-gauge stock. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, and general tradespeople keep jobber-length HSS bits as everyday consumables for sheet metal knockouts, framing penetrations, and bracket work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by tradespeople using handheld drills, cordless drivers, or stationary drill presses. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before applying feed pressure. Lubrication or cutting fluid is recommended when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life.
