Product Description

The IMPORT BDNA-KP65026 is a 5/16 inch jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, plastic, and similar materials. Built from high speed steel with an oxide coating, it resists heat and wear during sustained drilling operations. The 118-degree standard point angle provides a reliable, self-centering entry suited to a wide range of workpiece materials. At 4.5 inches overall length with a 3.1875-inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks and drill presses used daily in trade and shop environments. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors reach for jobber bits like this for everyday hole-making tasks on the job site or in the shop.

This drill bit is appropriate for residential and commercial trade applications where a standard jobber-length bit is needed. The straight cylindrical shank seats securely in three-jaw chucks on handheld drills and drill presses alike. The right-hand spiral flute clears chips efficiently during drilling, reducing heat buildup and extending cutting life. Its general-purpose grade makes it a practical stock item for service vans, shop benches, and tool cribs.
