Irwin IR73827 Jobber Length Drill Bit 27/64 in

Product Description

The IRWIN IR73827 is a jobber-length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. It features a 27/64 inch diameter cutting edge and a 3/8 inch reduced shank, allowing it to fit into standard 3/8 inch chuck capacity drills. The bright finish indicates an uncoated high-speed steel construction, making it suitable for a wide range of everyday drilling tasks. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople keep jobber-length bits on hand for through-hole drilling in sheet metal, structural members, and framing components.

This bit is used in residential and light commercial trade applications where a standard-length twist drill is needed. The reduced shank design allows a larger-diameter bit to be used in smaller chuck drills, expanding versatility on the job. It is sold individually, making it a practical replacement or addition to an existing drill set without committing to a full kit.
