Value Collection BS2700005 Jobber Drill Bit 5/64 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BS2700005 is a 5/64 inch (0.0781 inch) high speed steel jobber drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in aluminum and other non-ferrous materials. It features a 130-degree standard point angle with web thinning for improved centering and reduced thrust at entry. The slow spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation in softer metals. At 2 inches overall length with a 1 inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks via its straight cylindrical shank. It is suited for use in hand drills, drill presses, and CNC drilling applications in light manufacturing and maintenance environments.

This jobber drill bit is intended for drilling aluminum, copper, brass, and similar non-ferrous workpiece materials. Its bright uncoated finish and general-purpose grade make it a straightforward replacement or stock bit for shops, maintenance crews, and fabricators who need a reliable small-diameter drill without specialty coatings. The right-hand cutting direction and two-flute slow spiral configuration are well matched to the chip characteristics of soft metals and plastics.

Key Features

• 5/64 inch (0.0781 inch) diameter with slow spiral flute for efficient chip clearing in non-ferrous materials
• 130-degree standard point with web thinning and tapered web configuration for reduced walking and improved entry
• High speed steel construction for durability across general-purpose drilling tasks
• Bright/uncoated finish — no coating to flake or interfere with tight-tolerance holes
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters
• ANSI specification designation for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit compatible with any drill press, hand drill, or CNC spindle accepting a straight-shank bit of 5/64 inch diameter. Primary workpiece materials include aluminum and non-ferrous metals.

Installation Notes

Install and remove drill bits only when the drill or machine spindle is fully powered down and secured. Ensure the chuck is tightened evenly and that the shank is fully seated before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubrication when drilling aluminum to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Wear appropriate eye protection per shop safety standards when operating any drilling equipment.
