Value Collection 01188804 No. 80 Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01188804 is a No. 80 wire gauge jobber-length drill bit designed for precision drilling in steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with an oxide coating for added wear resistance, it features a 118-degree standard point angle and a right-hand, regular spiral flute configuration. The web-thinned, tapered web design reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation in small-diameter drilling applications. At 0.0135 inches in diameter and 0.75 inches overall length, this bit is suited for fine, close-tolerance work where a standard jobber geometry is required.

This drill bit is intended for general-purpose drilling in metalworking applications. It is commonly used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die professionals working with ferrous metals including steel and cast iron. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters, making it straightforward to deploy in bench drill presses, CNC drilling setups, or handheld power drills where the chuck capacity accommodates the shank diameter.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill bit for use in standard drill chucks accommodating a 0.0135-inch straight shank diameter, compatible with bench drill presses, CNC drilling machines, and handheld power drills across metalworking and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of small-diameter drill bits should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with precision drilling procedures. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent bit deflection or breakage at this diameter. Power down and de-energize any machine tool before loading or removing the bit from the chuck. Do not exceed the recommended feed rate or spindle speed for HSS tooling in the target material, and use cutting fluid where appropriate to extend tool life.
