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.

Maintenance-Length Drill Bits

Also known as mechanics’ bits, these are shorter and more rigid than jobbers' bits but longer than short-length bits. A split point keeps the bit centered without a pilot hole.
Drill bits with flats on shank have three flat sides to prevent the bit from slipping in the drill chuck.

Chip-Clearing Drill Bits

These jobbers'-length bits have the rigidity and length required for most applications. The flutes are designed to lift chips out of the hole, reducing clogging and improving coolant flow.
Black-oxide drill bits produce less friction than uncoated drill bits.
Drill bits with a split point keep centered without a pilot hole.

Carbide Drill Bits with Coolant Holes

Holes in these bits allow coolant to be run through the tool for more efficient chip evacuation. Use them in CNC machines with coolant-through technology. Made of solid carbide for the highest accuracy and longest tool life, they are harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than high-speed steel, cobalt steel, and carbide-tipped bits. They retain a sharp, hard edge at high temperatures for the best performance on hard and abrasive material. A titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN) coating gives them additional wear and temperature resistance. The four-facet point keeps the bit centered without a pilot hole. These bits require rigid toolholding to prevent breakage and should not be used in hand-held drilling applications.
Maintenance-length drill bits are shorter and more rigid than jobbers'-length bits but longer than short-length bits. They hold up better than jobbers' bits when drilling in hard metal. Also known as mechanics' bits.

Chip-Clearing Carbide Drill Bits


The parabolic spiral flutes lift chips out of the hole, reducing clogging and improving coolant flow. For the highest accuracy and longest tool life, these solid-carbide bits are harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than high-speed steel, cobalt steel, and carbide-tipped bits. They retain a sharp, hard edge at high temperatures for the best performance on hard and abrasive material. These bits require rigid toolholding to prevent breakage and should not be used in hand-held drilling. All are jobbers’ length so they have the rigidity and length required for most applications.
Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated drill bits last longer and can drill at higher speeds than uncoated drill bits.

Cobalt Steel Hex-Shank Drill Bits

In addition to resisting heat and wear better than high-speed steel drill bits, these can also run up to 25% faster and have a longer tool life. Insert them into power screwdrivers, impact drivers, and other tools that accept hex shanks. The flat surfaces on the hex shank allow tool chucks to grip these bits more securely than those with a round shank. A split point keeps the bits centered without a pilot hole.

Round-Shank Drill Reamers

Drill and finish holes in a single pass with these dual-purpose tools. The tapered tip gradually pierces your material to reduce friction, and the straight flutes make clean cuts without chipping or peeling the edge of the hole. Made from solid carbide, these drill reamers are strong and heat resistant. The flutes stay sharp even when cutting abrasive materials such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, and graphite. Use them in drill presses or other machines—carbide is brittle, and will break if used to drill by hand.
