Irwin IR73826 Jobber Drill Bit 13/32 in Hss Reduced Shank

Product Description

The IRWIN IR73826 is a jobber length drill bit designed for professionals who need reliable, consistent hole-making performance in metal, wood, and general construction materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS), the bit features a 118-degree standard point angle for accurate starting and clean penetration. At 13/32 inches in diameter with a 5.25-inch overall length and a 3.875-inch flute length, this bit is suited for common drilling tasks where a compact, versatile tool is required. The reduced shank measures 3/8 inches, allowing use in standard 3/8-inch chucks without modification.

This drill bit is intended for trade and industrial use across plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and general construction applications. It fits standard 3/8-inch drill chucks and works with both corded and cordless drill drivers. The reduced shank design makes it a practical choice when the full drill diameter exceeds the chuck capacity, allowing a single bit to serve multiple tool setups on the job.
