Value Collection 01245257 Jobber Drill Bit 5.25 Mm Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01245257 is a high speed steel jobber drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials. The bit measures 5.25 mm (0.2067 inches) in diameter and carries a 118-degree standard point angle, making it a conventional choice for production and maintenance drilling tasks. An oxide coating helps reduce friction and provides minimal corrosion resistance during use. Overall length is 3.7344 inches (3-47/64 inches), with a flute length of 2.5156 inches (2-33/64 inches). This bit is typically installed and used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and trades professionals working with drill presses, hand drills, or CNC setups.

This jobber drill is suited for drilling operations in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings where a standard two-flute right-hand spiral bit is the correct tooling choice. Primary workpiece materials include steel and cast iron. The straight cylindrical shank is compatible with standard drill chucks across a wide range of drill press and handheld power tool configurations. With a general-purpose grade, this bit fits routine production and repair applications where tight tolerances are not required.

Key Features

• 5.25 mm (0.2067 inches) diameter with matching straight cylindrical shank diameter of 0.2067 inches
• 118-degree standard point angle for conventional entry into ferrous materials
• High speed steel (HSS) construction with oxide finish to reduce friction
• Regular right-hand spiral flute with web-thinned, tapered web configuration for improved chip clearance
• Two-flute design suits general-purpose drilling in steel and cast iron
• No coolant-through feature — intended for dry or externally lubricated drilling setups

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks accepting straight cylindrical shanks in the 0.2000 to 0.2500 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a standard drill chuck on a drill press or handheld power drill. Ensure the chuck is fully tightened and the workpiece is securely clamped before drilling. Apply cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve cut quality. Never exceed the recommended speed range for the bit diameter and material being drilled.
