Milwaukee 48-89-2226 Titanium Jobber Drill Bit 5 5/8 in

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-89-2226 is a titanium-coated jobber length drill bit engineered for extended service life in demanding trade and jobsite applications. The titanium coating reduces heat build-up and keeps the cutting edge sharp, delivering up to three times longer life compared to standard high-speed steel bits. A thicker web core adds strength and resists side-load breakage, while a 135-degree split point tip starts on contact for a precise, no-walk entry. The overall package length is 7.75 inches. Drill techs, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC installers reach for this bit when drilling through wood, metal, and PVC on the job.

This bit is suited for residential and light commercial trade work where repeated drilling through mixed materials is required. The parabolic flute geometry clears chips quickly, reducing heat and keeping cut rates high. The reduced shank diameter allows use in 3/8-inch chucks, making it compatible with compact portable drills commonly carried by tradespeople. The 3-flat shank geometry locks into the chuck and prevents rotation or slipping under load. It performs reliably on flat and curved surfaces without requiring a center punch.

Key Features

• Titanium coating reduces heat build-up and extends cutting life up to three times longer than standard bits
• Thicker web core resists side-load breakage for greater durability under heavy use
• 135-degree split point tip starts on contact, prevents walking, and delivers accurate hole placement
• Parabolic flute design clears chips rapidly to maintain cut speed and reduce heat
• 3-flat shank prevents slipping in the chuck during high-torque drilling
• Reduced shank diameter fits standard 3/8-inch portable drill chucks

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

Secure the bit fully in the drill chuck before operation, verifying all three flats are engaged. Power down and disconnect the drill from its power source or battery before changing bits. Maintain consistent feed pressure to avoid overheating the tip, and allow the bit to cool between extended drilling sequences. No special certifications are required to operate this tool, but follow applicable jobsite safety protocols for power tool use.
