About Drill Bits

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.

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.

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.

Drill Bits for Plastic

The sharp point allows for gradual penetration to reduce friction and eliminate cracking and chipping when drilling in plastic. These bits are jobbers' length and have the rigidity and length required for most applications.
