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

Carbide Drill Bits

These jobbers'-length bits have the rigidity and length required for most applications. 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. 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.

Carbide Drill Bits for Sheet Metal

Harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than high-speed steel, solid-carbide bits maintain their sharp edges longer. They require rigid toolholding to prevent breakage and should not be used in hand-held drilling applications. These bits have short flutes and a sturdy construction which prevent snagging that deforms sheet metal and thin-wall tubing.

Carbide Hole-Starting Drill Bits



Harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than cobalt steel, solid-carbide bits maintain their sharp edges longer. They require rigid toolholding to prevent breakage and should not be used in hand-held drilling applications. The short flute and length keep these bits straight for accurate placement when starting holes that will be drilled deeper with a longer bit. Also known as spotting drill bits.
Bits with a 90° point angle are for centering and chamfering holes that will be followed by a smaller drill bit size.
Bits with a 120° point angle are for starting a hole that will be followed by a drill bit with a point angle from 90° to 118°.
Bits with a 140° point angle are for starting a hole that will be followed by a drill bit with a point angle from 118° to 135°.
