Value Collection 01366608 Drill Bit Set 60 Pc Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01366608 is a 60-piece screw machine length drill bit set designed for metalworking and general-purpose drilling applications. Each bit is made from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish and a standard 118-degree split point. The straight shank profile is compatible with most standard drill chucks. Screw machine length bits are shorter than jobber-length bits, which reduces deflection and improves accuracy when drilling in tight spaces or on drill presses. This set covers wire gauge sizes 1 through 60, giving technicians a full range of common hole sizes in a single case.

This set is suited for metalworking shops, maintenance and repair operations, and multipurpose jobsite use. The wire gauge range from 1 to 60 covers the fine-diameter holes commonly needed for tapping, deburring prep, and pilot drilling in metal, plastic, and similar materials. The shorter screw machine length is preferred when chuck clearance is limited or when rigidity is more important than reach. The set ships in a storage case that keeps bits organized and protects cutting edges between uses.

Key Features

• 60 pieces covering wire gauge sizes 1 through 60 in a single set
• High-speed steel construction for durability in metalworking applications
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose drilling
• Screw machine length body reduces deflection and improves hole accuracy
• Straight shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating to chip or delaminate during use

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard keyed or keyless drill chucks that accept straight shank bits. Suitable for metalworking, multipurpose drilling, and maintenance applications requiring wire gauge hole sizes.

Installation Notes

HSS drill bits should be installed in a properly tightened chuck before operation — loose chucks cause runout and premature bit wear. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and maintain edge geometry. Inspect bits for chipping or wear before each use. Proper spindle speed selection based on material and bit diameter is essential for clean holes and safe operation.
