Precision Twist Drill 018026 Hss Jobber Length Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 018026 is a high-speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit from the R18 series, designed for drilling into hard surfaces. Jobber-length geometry provides the balanced reach and rigidity that metalworking and maintenance trades rely on for consistent, accurate holes. The HSS construction gives this bit the hardness needed to cut through ferrous metals, cast iron, and other tough materials encountered in mechanical and industrial applications. It is a straightforward, professional-grade cutting tool suited for use in both hand-held and bench-mounted drill equipment.

This drill bit is intended for general-purpose metal drilling in trade and light industrial settings. The R18 designation identifies its place in the Precision Twist Drill jobber series lineup. Typical applications include fabrication work, maintenance and repair operations (MRO), and equipment service where a reliable HSS jobber bit is needed for drilling through hard base materials. It is sold in single-pack (pack of 1) configuration, making it practical for targeted replacement or low-volume use.

Key Features

• R18 series HSS construction for drilling hard surfaces and ferrous metals
• Jobber-length design balances reach with rigidity for accurate hole placement
• Sold as a single-pack unit for straightforward replacement purchasing
• Lightweight at 0.1 pounds, minimizing setup fatigue in hand-drill applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose HSS jobber-length drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks in hand-held and bench-mounted drilling equipment used in metalworking and MRO applications.

Installation Notes

Install this bit into a properly rated drill chuck and confirm the chuck is tightened securely before operation. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling. For hard surfaces, use cutting fluid where applicable to extend bit life and improve cut quality. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or dullness is observed.
