Value Collection 01180058 5/64 Inch Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01180058 is a 5/64 inch high speed steel jobber drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal fabrication, maintenance, and light industrial applications. The bit features a 118-degree standard point angle and an oxide coating that provides basic surface protection and lubricity during cutting. Overall length is 2 inches with a 1 inch flute length. Right-hand cutting geometry and a regular spiral flute type make this a straightforward replacement or stock bit for shops and field technicians who need reliable small-diameter drills on hand.

This bit is suited for drilling into steel and cast iron in production, repair, and assembly environments. The straight cylindrical shank with a diameter of 0.0781 inches fits standard keyless and keyed drill chucks. The tapered web configuration with web thinning reduces thrust required at the point, which is useful when drilling small-diameter holes in harder ferrous materials. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and general maintenance technicians are the typical users for a bit in this size range.

Key Features

• 5/64 inch (0.0781 inch) diameter high speed steel construction for ferrous metal drilling
• 118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned tapered web for reduced entry thrust
• Oxide coating provides surface lubricity and basic corrosion resistance
• Regular spiral flute with right-hand cutting direction for standard drill press and hand drill use
• 2-inch overall length fits compact chucks and tight-clearance work
• General purpose grade suitable for steel and cast iron workpieces

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement jobber drill bit for use in standard drill presses, hand drills, and CNC drilling applications requiring a 5/64 inch straight-shank bit.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should follow standard machining safety practices. Secure the workpiece before drilling and ensure the chuck is tightened fully before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling harder ferrous materials to extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edges before use and replace if the point shows chipping or significant wear.
