Value Collection 01165265 Jobber Drill 13/32 in 118 Deg Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01165265 is a 13/32 inch (0.4062 inch) high speed steel jobber drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in a wide range of materials. The 118-degree standard point angle provides reliable self-centering on entry, making it a practical choice for production drilling and maintenance work. The bright, uncoated finish is suitable for use without additional surface treatment. A web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust requirements and improves chip evacuation. At 5.25 inches overall length with a 3.875-inch flute length, this drill fits standard drill chucks and drill presses used in industrial and trade applications.

This jobber drill is rated for aluminum and non-ferrous materials as its primary workpiece material, making it well suited for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work where copper, aluminum, and soft alloy drilling is common. The straight cylindrical shank seats in standard Jacobs-style chucks. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for use in conventional drill presses, cordless drills, and magnetic drills. No coolant-through capability, so external coolant or cutting fluid can be applied at the cutting edge when needed for extended run applications.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill for use with standard drill chucks accepting a 13/32 inch straight shank. Suitable for drilling aluminum and non-ferrous materials in typical trade and production applications.

Installation Notes

Secure the shank fully in the drill chuck before operation and verify chuck key is removed before powering the tool. Apply appropriate cutting fluid when drilling non-ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use, particularly in production settings. Disposal and handling of HSS drill bits should follow shop safety protocols for sharp tooling.
