Value Collection BS27N0002 Jobber Drill Bit Wire Size 2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BS27N0002 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit designed for fast, accurate hole-making in aluminum and other non-ferrous materials. Sized to wire gauge number 2, it cuts a 0.221-inch diameter hole with a 130-degree split-point geometry that helps the bit self-center and reduces walking on entry. The slow spiral flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation in softer materials, keeping the cutting edge clear and reducing heat buildup. At 3.875 inches overall length with a 2.625-inch flute, it fits standard drill chucks and magnetic drill setups used by electricians, plumbers, and maintenance technicians on the job site.

This drill bit is suited for drilling through aluminum sheet, copper, brass, and similar non-ferrous stock in light fabrication, maintenance, and service work. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard 3-jaw chucks on both corded and cordless drills. The bright uncoated finish keeps the bit free of any coating that could react with non-ferrous materials, and the web-thinned tapered web lowers the thrust force needed to start and advance the cut. General-purpose grade construction makes it a practical stock item for field kits and shop benches.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill bit for use in standard 3-jaw drill chucks on corded or cordless drills; primary application is aluminum and non-ferrous materials per ANSI specification.

Installation Notes

Drill bit installation and use should follow standard shop safety practices — secure the workpiece firmly before drilling and wear appropriate eye protection. Ensure the drill chuck is fully tightened before operation. For best results in aluminum, use a cutting fluid or lubricant to extend bit life and improve hole quality. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or dullness is observed.
