Value Collection 01167030 No. 3 Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01167030 is a No. 3 wire-size jobber-length drill bit machined from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish. It carries a 118-degree standard point angle and a regular spiral flute design, making it a dependable general-purpose cutting tool for production and maintenance drilling. The decimal diameter is 0.213 inches, the flute length is 2.5 inches, and the overall length is 3.75 inches. A tapered web with web-thinning reduces thrust at drill entry and improves chip evacuation. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators install this bit in standard drill presses, CNC machines, and hand-held power drills.

This jobber drill is suited for drilling aluminum, non-ferrous metals, plastics, and similar softer workpiece materials. The straight cylindrical shank with a 0.213-inch diameter seats directly into standard three-jaw chucks and collet systems without adapters. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional drill press and hand-drill spindle rotation. The general-purpose grade and uncoated finish make it a cost-effective choice for shop floor drilling, light fabrication, and field service where bit turnover is routine.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or qualified technician should secure the shank fully within the chuck jaws before operating. Always ensure the workpiece is clamped or fixtured before drilling to prevent rotation. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubrication when drilling non-ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if the point shows signs of dulling.
