The IRWIN IR60523 is a high speed steel (HSS) jobber length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. It features a 23/64-inch drill diameter and a standard 118-degree point angle, which provides reliable self-centering performance across a wide range of materials. The straight shank design is compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks. With an overall length of 4.875 inches and a flute length of 3.5 inches, this bit is sized for everyday production drilling and maintenance tasks. It is used by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals who need consistent performance from a standard jobber-length bit.

It is commonly used for drilling pilot holes, clearance holes, and through-holes in sheet metal, conduit, pipe hangers, structural members, and general fabrication work. The 23/64-inch diameter is a practical size for bolt clearance and anchor preparation in trade installation work.
