Value Collection 81430092 9/64 Inch Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 81430092 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit designed for heavy-duty metal drilling applications. It features a 135-degree split point that self-centers on contact, reducing the need for a center punch and minimizing walking on hard surfaces. The parabolic flute geometry improves chip evacuation at higher feed rates, making it well suited for steel and cast iron workpieces. At 9/64 inch (0.1406 inch) diameter with a 2-7/8 inch overall length and 1-3/4 inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks used in benchtop and handheld drilling equipment.

This drill bit is intended for general-purpose hole making in ferrous metals including steel and cast iron. The bright uncoated finish and HSS construction make it a practical choice for machine shops, maintenance technicians, fabricators, and field tradespeople who need a reliable jobber drill for everyday metal stock, plate, and structural material. Its straight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard three-jaw chucks without adapters.

Key Features

• 135-degree split point for self-centering and reduced thrust force
• Parabolic flute design for efficient chip clearance in steel and cast iron
• High speed steel construction rated for heavy-duty drilling grade
• Web-thinned tapered web for easier penetration and reduced heat buildup

Compatibility

Designed as a standard jobber-length drill bit for use in any drill press, hand drill, or CNC drilling application that accepts a straight cylindrical shank at 0.1406 inch diameter. Primary workpiece materials are steel and cast iron.

Installation Notes

This drill bit is installed and serviced by machinists, maintenance mechanics, and trade professionals using standard drill chucks. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify concentricity before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling steel or cast iron to extend tool life and reduce heat. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use and replace the bit if the point is chipped or the flutes are damaged.
