Value Collection C87755 11/32 in Jobber Drill Bit Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C87755 is an 11/32-inch high-speed steel jobber drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastics. Built from M7 HSS, this bit delivers durability in heavy-duty applications where carbon steel bits would wear prematurely. The 135-degree split point reduces walking on contact, allowing drilling to begin without a center punch in most applications. A black and gold oxide finish provides lubricity and mild corrosion resistance. The overall length is 4-3/4 inches with a flute length of 3-7/16 inches. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworkers are the primary users of this style of bit.

This jobber-length drill bit is suited for hand-held drill use as well as drill press and CNC drilling operations in light to medium production environments. The straight cylindrical shank and standard 11/32-inch diameter make it compatible with most keyed and keyless chucks found in workshop and field settings. The right-hand spiral flute efficiently clears chips during drilling. The heavy-duty grade designation and M7 steel make this bit a practical choice for drilling mild steel, aluminum, and similar materials in both shop and field environments.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard jobber-length drill bit compatible with any chuck sized to accept an 11/32-inch straight shank, including handheld drills, drill presses, and machining centers.

Installation Notes

Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify the chuck is properly tightened. Ensure the workpiece is clamped or secured to prevent movement during drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve cut quality. Wear appropriate eye protection per applicable shop safety standards at all times during use.
