Value Collection 01188135 No. 13 Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01188135 is a No. 13 wire-size jobber-length drill bit ground from high speed steel (HSS) and finished with a black oxide coating. It cuts a 0.185-inch diameter hole and features a standard 118-degree split-point geometry with a web-thinned, tapered web for reduced thrust on entry. The regular spiral flute runs 2.3125 inches in length, promoting chip evacuation in ferrous and general-purpose materials. Overall length is 3.5 inches. The straight cylindrical shank seats in standard three-jaw chucks on both benchtop and handheld drilling equipment. This is a general-purpose bit suited for production and maintenance drilling applications.

This bit is intended for right-hand rotation drilling in steel, cast iron, and comparable ferrous workpiece materials. The 0.185-inch diameter falls within the 0.150- to 0.200-inch decimal range, making it a common choice for clearance holes, pilot holes, and tapping operations in light fabrication, maintenance repair, and machine shop environments. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order of 12 units, making it practical for shop stock replenishment.

Key Features

• No. 13 wire size — 0.185 inch (0.1850 decimal inch) cutting diameter
• 118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced entry thrust
• High speed steel construction for durability in ferrous materials including steel and cast iron
• Black oxide coating for mild corrosion resistance and reduced friction during cutting
• Regular spiral flute, 2.3125 inches long, promotes chip clearing in through-hole drilling
• Straight cylindrical shank — 0.185 inch diameter — compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill bit for use in standard three-jaw chucks on drill presses, CNC drilling machines, and handheld electric drills; sized for steel and cast iron workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, tool-and-die tradespeople, and general maintenance technicians. Secure the straight shank fully in a properly tightened chuck before operation. Ensure spindle speed is appropriate for the workpiece material and bit diameter per standard machining practice. Wear appropriate eye and face protection; secure the workpiece to prevent rotation during drilling.
