Value Collection BS27N0062 No 62 Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BS27N0062 is a No. 62 wire-size jobber-length drill bit ground from high speed steel (HSS) for general-purpose drilling in metal fabrication, maintenance, and light production work. The bit features a 130-degree split point with web thinning to reduce walking on entry and lower thrust force at the spindle. At 0.0380 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches overall length, it is sized for tight-clearance work, pilot holes, and tapping prep in thin-gauge material. The bright, uncoated finish is standard for HSS and makes it easy to inspect the cutting edges for wear. A licensed machinist or trades professional installs this bit in a standard drill press, hand drill, or CNC spindle.

This drill bit is suited for drilling aluminum, brass, copper, and other non-ferrous materials where a slow spiral flute helps clear chips cleanly without packing. The 0.625-inch flute length accommodates shallow-depth holes typical of sheet metal, electrical enclosures, HVAC cabinet work, and plumbing fixture applications. The straight cylindrical shank seats directly into standard drill chucks without adapters.

Key Features

• No. 62 wire size, 0.0380-inch diameter for precision small-hole drilling
• 130-degree point angle with web thinning reduces thrust and improves centering
• Slow spiral flute geometry promotes clean chip evacuation in non-ferrous metals
• High speed steel construction provides durability across general-purpose applications
• Bright, uncoated finish allows easy edge inspection and works without coolant
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks with no adapter required

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose jobber drill bit suitable for use in standard drill presses, hand drills, and CNC spindles accepting a 0.0380-inch straight shank. Primary workpiece materials are aluminum and other non-ferrous metals per ANSI specification designation.

Installation Notes

Install and remove this bit with the drill or press fully powered down and the chuck key clear of the chuck before starting. Secure the bit firmly in the chuck jaws to prevent slipping, which can damage the shank or the workpiece. Use appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling. For small-diameter bits at this size, avoid side loading or prying in the hole, as the shank is susceptible to breakage under lateral force.
