Short-Length Drill Bits

Also known as screw-machine and stub-length bits, these provide maximum rigidity for drilling straighter holes than jobbers'- and maintenance-length drill bits.
Black-oxide drill bits produce less friction than uncoated drill bits.
Drill bits with a split point keep centered without a pilot hole.

Short-Flute Cobalt Steel Drill Bits

The short flutes on these jobbers'-length bits provide increased rigidity for drilling straighter holes. Made of cobalt steel, which has better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel, they can run up to 25% faster and have a longer tool life. A split point keeps the bit centered without a pilot hole.

Short-Length Carbide-Tipped Drill Bits

Also known as screw-machine and stub-length bits, these provide maximum rigidity for drilling straighter holes than standard-length drill bits. Made of carbide-tipped steel, which has better wear resistance than high-speed steel and cobalt steel, they maintain a sharper, harder edge at high temperatures for excellent performance on abrasive material, such as plastic. Because they aren’t as brittle as solid carbide bits, they can be used in less rigid setups, such as a hand-held drill.
Drill bits with a split point keep centered without a pilot hole.
Drill bits with 135° point angle produce smaller chips than 118° point to prevent clogging.

Carbide-Tipped Drill Bits for Hardened Steel

The straight flutes and notched point withstand the heavy pressure necessary to penetrate hard steel. These carbide-tipped bits maintain their sharp edges when drilling abrasive material. Because they aren’t as brittle as solid carbide bits, they can be used in less rigid setups, such as a hand-held drill. They are jobbers' length and have the rigidity and length required for most hand-held drilling and machine tool applications.
