Precision Twist Drill 018005 Hss Jobber Length Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 018005 is a high-speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit from the R18 series, engineered for drilling into hard surfaces. Jobber-length geometry provides a balanced combination of reach and rigidity, making these bits a reliable choice for general-purpose and production drilling applications. HSS construction delivers the hardness and heat resistance needed to maintain cutting edges through demanding materials. This drill bit is sold as a single unit and is suited for use by machinists, pipefitters, electricians, and other trade professionals who require consistent, accurate hole sizing in ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

The 018005 is appropriate for use in hand-held drills, drill presses, and machine tool setups. It fits residential and commercial trade applications where repeated, accurate drilling in hard materials is required. The R18 jobber series is a standard go-to for metalworking tasks encountered during mechanical, electrical, and plumbing rough-in and finishing work.

Key Features

• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability and heat resistance during hard-surface drilling
• Jobber-length geometry balances reach with bit rigidity to reduce deflection
• R18 series design engineered for consistent performance in ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Lightweight at 0.3 pounds for easy handling in hand-held or stationary drill applications
• Minimum order quantity of 1 unit for flexible purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as a standard jobber-length HSS drill bit compatible with common drill chucks used in hand-held drills, drill presses, and machine tools across trade and production applications.

Installation Notes

This drill bit is installed by machinists, electricians, plumbers, and general trade professionals using standard drill chucks. Always secure the workpiece before drilling and use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling hard metals to extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edge before each use and replace bits that show signs of wear or damage to maintain hole accuracy and operator safety.
