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.

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.

Parabolic spiral flute drill bits have wider flutes for more efficient chip evacuation than spiral-flute bits.

Black-oxide drill bits produce less friction than uncoated drill bits.

Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated drill bits last longer and can drill at higher speeds than uncoated and black-oxide drill bits.

Drill bits with a split point keep centered without a pilot hole.

The short flutes provide increased rigidity for drilling straighter holes and the long length lets you access hard-to-reach spots. More wear resistant than cobalt steel and high-speed steel, these carbide-tipped bits 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. A split point keeps the bit centered without a pilot hole.
