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.

Short-Flute Extended-Length Cobalt Steel Drill Bits

The short flutes provide increased rigidity for drilling straighter holes and the long length lets you access hard-to-reach spots. With better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel, these cobalt steel bits can run up to 25% faster and have a longer tool life. A split point keeps the bit centered without a pilot hole.

Nonsparking Drill Bits

Drill safely in flammable environments. Made of Factory Mutual (FM) approved beryllium copper, these bits won’t create sparks that could ignite if they made contact with combustible vapors or residues. These drill bits help you meet OSHA requirements in areas such as mines, refineries, and chemical plants where flammable materials are present.
Do not use these bits in direct contact with acetylene. Dust from beryllium copper can be toxic, so don't grind or sharpen them.

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.

Cobalt Steel Drill Bits for Stainless Steel and Nickel

Cobalt steel and a titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN) coating provide the heat and wear resistance necessary for drilling in stainless steel and nickel alloys. These bits have parabolic spiral flutes, which lift chips out of the hole to reduce clogging and improve coolant flow. They are jobbers' length and have the rigidity and length required for most hand-held drilling and machine tool applications.

High-Speed Steel Left-Hand Drill Bits

Also known as reverse-flute bits, the flutes spiral in the opposite direction of other bits. Use in counterclockwise drilling applications such as removing broken screws. These bits are jobbers' length and have the rigidity and length required for most applications.
