Value Collection 01165091 9/64 Inch Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01165091 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in light metals and non-ferrous materials. The bit measures 9/64 inches (0.1406 inches decimal) in diameter with an overall length of 2.875 inches and a flute length of 1.75 inches. The 118-degree standard point angle provides a versatile cutting geometry suited to a wide range of common drilling tasks. The bright, uncoated finish is a standard choice for HSS tooling used in lower-heat, lower-abrasion applications. A web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces the thrust required to start the cut and helps with chip clearance.

This bit is suited for use in residential and light commercial job site settings, maintenance and repair work, and fabrication shops. Typical applications include drilling aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous workpieces. The straight cylindrical shank is compatible with standard drill chucks found on corded and cordless drills, drill presses, and similar rotary equipment. It is a single-piece, single-use consumable that plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general tradespeople keep on hand for everyday field drilling tasks.

Key Features

• 9/64 inch (0.1406 inch) diameter straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose cutting geometry
• High speed steel construction for durability in non-ferrous and aluminum drilling
• Web-thinned tapered web reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation
• Regular right-hand spiral flute with 2 flutes for efficient chip removal
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating buildup to interfere with close-tolerance holes

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill bit for use in standard drill chucks accepting straight cylindrical shanks. Primary workpiece material compatibility is aluminum and non-ferrous metals.

Installation Notes

Installation of this drill bit requires seating the straight shank fully and evenly in the drill chuck before tightening. Always wear appropriate eye protection when drilling. Select appropriate drill speed for the workpiece material — lower speeds are generally recommended for harder metals. Ensure the workpiece is secured before beginning the cut to prevent workpiece movement or bit breakage.
