Precision Twist Drill 018030 Hss Jobber Drill Bit 30

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 018030 is a high-speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit sized at number 30, built for drilling hard surfaces in demanding work environments. Jobber-length geometry delivers the versatile reach most technicians, machinists, and tradespeople need for general-purpose through-hole drilling. HSS construction provides the hardness and heat resistance required when drilling into ferrous metals, cast iron, and other tough materials. This bit ships in a single-pack unit and weighs 0.05 pounds, making it easy to add to an existing bit index or carry as a replacement in a field kit.

The 018030 is suited for metalworking, mechanical, and general trade applications where a reliable jobber-length HSS drill bit is required. Number 30 sizing fits standard fractional and wire gauge drilling tasks commonly encountered in HVAC equipment fabrication, plumbing rough-in metalwork, electrical panel work, and light industrial assembly. It performs in both drill press and handheld drill driver setups.

Key Features

• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for heat resistance and durability on hard surfaces
