Value Collection 01180280 7/16 Inch Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01180280 is a high speed steel (HSS) jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials. It features a 118-degree standard point angle with web thinning for improved centering and reduced thrust at entry. The oxide coating provides light corrosion resistance and reduced friction during cutting. At 5.5 inches overall length with a 4.0625-inch flute length, this bit fits standard 3-jaw chucks and drill presses used in shop and field maintenance work. Machinists, maintenance mechanics, and metal fabricators are the primary users.

This jobber drill bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling in ferrous workpiece materials including steel and cast iron. The straight cylindrical shank with a 7/16-inch diameter accepts standard drill chucks without an adapter. The regular spiral, two-flute design provides efficient chip evacuation in through-hole and blind-hole applications. It is appropriate for use in hand drills, drill presses, and milling machine setups in light to medium-duty industrial and trade environments.

Installation Notes

Install in a properly sized drill chuck and tighten securely before operation. Secure the workpiece to prevent movement during drilling. Apply appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous materials to extend tool life and improve finish quality. Inspect the cutting edges before use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is present.
