Value Collection 01167519 No. 51 Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01167519 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit sized to wire gauge No. 51, with a decimal equivalent of 0.0670 inches. It features a standard 118-degree split point and a bright, uncoated finish suited for general-purpose drilling applications. The overall length is 2 inches, with a 1-inch flute length. The straight cylindrical shank is 0.0670 inches in diameter, allowing it to seat directly in standard drill chucks without adapters. This bit is designed for machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators who need a reliable small-diameter drill for precision hole work in non-ferrous and similar materials.

This jobber drill bit is intended for use on aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and comparable workpiece materials in light manufacturing, maintenance, and fabrication environments. The regular spiral flute and right-hand cutting direction make it compatible with standard benchtop and handheld drill presses. Its general-purpose grade suits repetitive production drilling as well as one-off maintenance tasks where a No. 51 wire-gauge hole is required.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size No. 51 with 0.0670-inch decimal diameter
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry
• High speed steel construction for durability across repeated use cycles
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect hole tolerance
• Web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust during drilling
• Right-hand, regular spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks directly

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or stock drill bit for applications requiring a No. 51 wire gauge hole in aluminum and non-ferrous workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

Secure the shank fully in a properly sized drill chuck before operation and verify chuck runout is within acceptable limits for small-diameter bits. Use appropriate drilling speeds for the workpiece material — small-diameter HSS bits are sensitive to excess feed rate and lateral loading. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent bit deflection or breakage. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use; replace the bit if the point is damaged.
