Irwin IR60514 Hss Jobber Drill Bit 7/32 Inch 118 Degree

Product Description

The IRWIN IR60514 is a high speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. Built to a standard 118-degree point angle with a straight shank, it fits most standard drill chucks without adapters. The 7/32-inch diameter and 2.5-inch flute length make it well suited for through-holes and deep drilling in typical trade applications. At 3.75 inches overall, it falls within the standard jobber-length range, giving a good balance of rigidity and reach. Licensed electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors reach for HSS jobber bits as a reliable everyday drilling solution on the job site.

This bit is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial applications where consistent hole diameter and clean entry are required. Typical use cases include drilling pilot holes for fasteners, conduit anchor points, pipe hangers, and equipment mounting hardware. The straight shank allows use in both keyed and keyless chucks on corded and cordless drills.

Installation Notes

HSS drill bits are installed and removed by hand using a keyed or keyless chuck — ensure the chuck is fully tightened before drilling. Always wear appropriate eye protection when drilling. Match drill speed to material type: lower RPM for harder metals, higher RPM for wood and softer materials. Inspect the cutting edge before use and replace bits that show signs of chipping or dullness to avoid workpiece damage.
