Irwin IR60522 Hss Jobber Drill Bit 11/32 Inches 118 Degree

Product Description

The IRWIN IR60522 is a high speed steel jobber length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. Sized at 11/32 inches in diameter with a 118-degree standard point angle, it delivers consistent entry and chip clearance on a wide range of materials. The straight shank design seats securely in standard drill chucks without the need for adapters. With an overall length of 4.75 inches and a flute length of 3.4375 inches, this bit fits the jobber length profile used throughout the trade for everyday hole-making tasks. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors rely on HSS jobber bits as a staple in their drill index.

This bit is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a reliable, standard-length drill bit is needed. Common tasks include drilling pilot holes for fasteners, conduit knockouts, pipe penetrations, and bracket mounting. The 11/32-inch diameter is a frequently specified size in mechanical and electrical work, fitting common anchor and fastener clearance requirements. It is sold individually, making it practical as a replacement for a worn bit in an existing set or as a standalone addition to a job kit.

Installation Notes

Install the bit fully into a 3-jaw chuck and tighten securely before operation. Ensure the drill is powered off and the trigger is locked out before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubrication when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and manage heat buildup. Dispose of worn or chipped bits per shop safety protocols to prevent injury during handling.
