This bit is made from high-speed steel for durability and heat resistance. The cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks, and the right-hand cutting direction suits most drilling tasks. Its long series length allows drilling deeper holes than standard jobber bits.

Ideal use cases

• Drilling pilot holes for screws in metal
• Creating clearance holes in wood or plastic
• Deep-hole drilling in machine components

Good to know

Use cutting fluid when drilling metal to extend bit life. The bright finish provides a clean surface, but the bit is not coated for high-performance applications.
