Milwaukee 48-89-2208 Titanium Jobber Drill Bit 5.5 in 2-pack

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-89-2208 is a titanium-coated jobber length drill bit sold in a 2-piece pack, designed for tradespeople who need consistent performance drilling through wood, metal, and PVC. The titanium coating reduces heat buildup and extends bit life up to three times longer than standard uncoated bits. A thicker-than-standard web core resists side-load breakage, making this bit well suited for demanding jobsite use with portable drills. The 135-degree split point tip starts on contact without walking, and the parabolic flute geometry clears chips quickly to keep the bit cool during extended use.

This drill bit is designed for general-purpose drilling in residential and commercial trade applications. It is effective on curved surfaces and works with standard 3/8-inch chucks thanks to a reduced shank diameter. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors will find it useful for everyday drilling tasks in wood framing, metal strapping, conduit, and PVC pipe or fittings. The 3-flat shank reduces slipping in the chuck under high-torque conditions.

Key Features

• Titanium coating reduces heat buildup and extends bit life up to 3 times versus standard bits
• Thicker web core provides greater strength and resists side-load breakage
• 135-degree split point tip starts on contact and prevents walking for accurate hole placement
• Parabolic flute design clears chips and debris quickly to maintain bit temperature
• 3-flat secure-grip shank holds firmly in drill chuck and reduces slipping
• Reduced shank diameter is compatible with 3/8-inch chucks

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard portable drills equipped with 3/8-inch or larger chucks. Suitable for drilling wood, metal, and PVC.

Installation Notes

Secure the bit fully in the chuck before drilling and confirm the 3-flat shank is properly seated. Use appropriate speed settings for the material being drilled — lower RPM for metal, higher RPM for wood and PVC. Wear eye protection when drilling metal or PVC to guard against chip ejection. Inspect bits for wear or damage before each use and replace if the cutting edges show signs of dulling or deformation.
