Manufactured from M-2 high speed steel, this bit delivers a proven balance of strength, heat resistance, and wear resistance across a wide range of materials.

This bit is designed for general use in wood, metal, and plastic, making it a versatile option across multiple trades. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors will find it practical for rough-in work, equipment mounting, and structural drilling. The jobber length format offers a balance of reach and rigidity appropriate for most through-hole and pilot-hole applications in residential and light commercial settings. The 5-pack format supports high-turnover tool kits and service vehicles.
