Value Collection BS2600026 Jobber Drill Bit 13/32 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BS2600026 is a 13/32 inch (0.4062 inch) high speed steel jobber drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal fabrication, mechanical assembly, and light industrial applications. The 140-degree split point reduces walking on entry and allows drilling without a center punch on most surfaces. The bright, uncoated finish keeps heat transfer predictable and makes the bit easy to inspect for wear. The fast spiral flute design evacuates chips efficiently, reducing heat buildup and extending tool life in continuous use. This bit is appropriate for use in standard drill presses, hand drills, and CNC drilling operations across a range of common workpiece materials.

This jobber drill bit is suited for drilling steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without modification. The web-thinned, tapered web construction reduces thrust force requirements, making it practical for use in lower-torque portable drills as well as fixed spindle machines. The 3-7/8 inch flute length provides adequate chip clearance for drilling through most workpiece thicknesses typical in trade and light industrial environments. This bit conforms to ANSI specification standards.

Key Features

• 13/32 inch (0.4062 inch) diameter high speed steel construction for durability in metal and wood drilling
• 140-degree point angle for self-centering entry and reduced walk-on-start
• Fast spiral flute design for efficient chip evacuation and reduced heat buildup
• Web-thinned tapered web reduces drilling thrust and extends bit life
• Bright uncoated finish allows easy visual wear inspection
• ANSI specification compliant for consistent dimensional accuracy

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill bit compatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks accepting a straight cylindrical shank. Suitable for use in drill presses, hand drills, and CNC drilling equipment. Intended for use in steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood workpieces.

Installation Notes

Install and remove this bit with the drill or press powered off and the chuck fully released. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck before applying power. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling steel to manage heat, even though this bit does not feature through-coolant capability. Inspect the point for wear or chipping before each use, and re-sharpen or replace the bit when the point shows signs of rounding or damage.
