Value Collection 01220185 9/32 in Left Hand Jobber Drill

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01220185 is a left-hand jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic. It is manufactured from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish and features a standard 118-degree point angle suited for common shop and field drilling applications. The bit measures 9/32 inch (0.2812 inch) in diameter with an overall length of 4.25 inches and a flute length of 2.9375 inches. The straight cylindrical shank provides secure chuck engagement. Left-hand cutting direction makes this bit well-suited for extracting broken fasteners and reverse-rotation drilling tasks performed by licensed trades and maintenance technicians.

This jobber drill bit is used in residential and light commercial maintenance settings where left-hand rotation is required. It is particularly useful for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals who need to remove broken bolts, screws, or studs by drilling with a reverse-rotation drill. The regular spiral flute geometry and tapered web configuration support efficient chip evacuation during through-hole drilling. It is sold individually and is appropriate for use with standard keyed or keyless drill chucks accepting a 9/32-inch straight shank.
