Value Collection BS27N0009 Jobber Drill Bit No. 9 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BS27N0009 is a No. 9 wire-size jobber-length drill bit ground from high speed steel (HSS) and supplied in a bright, uncoated finish. The 130-degree split point reduces walking on entry and cuts cleanly through aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous materials without the need for a center punch. The slow-spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation in softer workpiece materials. At 3.625 inches overall length with a 2.4375-inch flute length, this bit fits standard three-jaw drill chucks and is suited to bench drills, hand drills, and CNC drilling applications where a 0.1960-inch diameter hole is required.

This drill bit is intended for general-purpose drilling in aluminum and non-ferrous metals in light manufacturing, maintenance, and fabrication environments. The straight cylindrical shank at 0.1960 inches diameter seats directly in any matching collet or keyed chuck. Its ANSI-conforming geometry makes it a straightforward drop-in for shops already running wire-size drill sets. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance mechanics are the primary users.

Key Features

• No. 9 wire size — 0.1960-inch decimal diameter for precise hole sizing
• 130-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced thrust and clean entry
• Slow-spiral two-flute design optimized for chip clearance in aluminum and non-ferrous workpieces
• High speed steel construction provides adequate hardness for general-purpose production drilling
• Bright, uncoated finish — compatible with cutting oils and water-soluble coolants
• ANSI specification conformance for dimensional consistency across interchangeable tooling setups

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement jobber drill bit for any application requiring a No. 9 wire-size, 0.1960-inch diameter hole in aluminum or non-ferrous materials using standard straight-shank drill chucks.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance mechanics using a standard keyed or keyless chuck sized for a straight cylindrical shank. Confirm the chuck is fully tightened and the workpiece is securely clamped before beginning the drilling cycle. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve hole finish. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and discard bits that show visible damage.
