L H Dottie Co HS16 High Speed Steel Drill Bit 1/4 in

Product Description

The L H Dottie Co HS16 is a high speed steel drill bit sized at 1/4 inch, designed for drilling through metal, wood, and other common trade materials. High speed steel construction provides the hardness and heat resistance needed for repetitive drilling in demanding job-site conditions. This bit is sold individually and is suited for use with standard corded or cordless power drills. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors reach for bits like this when running conduit, boring pipe penetrations, or preparing mounting points in light structural materials.

The HS16 fits into everyday trade drilling tasks across residential and light commercial applications. It is appropriate for use wherever a 1/4 inch hole is required in metal framing, sheet stock, wood blocking, or similar substrates. Its compact single-bit packaging makes it easy to replace a worn bit on the job without purchasing a full set.
