Triumph Twist Drill 012650 No 50 Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The TRIUMPH TWIST DRILL 012650 is a No. 50 wire gauge jobber length drill bit engineered for high-performance drilling in metal and wood applications. Manufactured from M7 high speed steel with a gold oxide coating, this bit delivers extended tool life and reduced friction during cutting. The 135-degree split point provides self-centering entry and reduces the need for a center punch on most workpieces. At 2 inches overall length with a 1-inch spiral flute, it is sized for the compact, precise work common in production and maintenance environments. A straight-cylindrical shank ensures consistent chuck grip across standard keyless and keyed drill chucks.

This bit is suited for drilling alloy steel, carbon steel, and wood in both shop and field settings. The T2HD series is designed for heavy-duty, high-frequency use where dimensional accuracy and point integrity matter. Typical applications include pilot holes, fastener clearance holes, and precision layout work in metal fabrication, machine shops, and HVAC or electrical trade installations requiring tight-tolerance penetrations in steel enclosures or structural members.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit jobber length drill bit for use with any standard straight-shank drill chuck accepting a 0.0700-inch shank diameter. Suitable for drilling alloy steel, carbon steel, and wood as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Install and removal should be performed by a qualified technician using appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling and ensure the drill chuck is tightened completely before operation. Inspect the bit for chipping or wear before each use, as small-diameter bits are susceptible to breakage under side load or excessive feed pressure. Follow applicable OSHA and shop safety standards for drilling operations.
