Heavy-Duty Jobber Drill Bit 7/16 in
The Chicago-Latrobe 41628 is a 135-degree split-point drill bit made from high-speed steel with a TiN coating. It is built for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic where a jobber-length tool is required. The fractional 7/16-inch size suits maintenance, fabrication and automotive tasks.
Check your chuck capacity and material
Verify that your drill chuck accepts a 7/16-inch shank before ordering. The 135-degree split point is designed to start cleanly on harder materials such as steel, so confirm the workpiece suits high-speed steel tooling. No coolant-through feature is present, so plan for external lubrication if the application demands it.
Fits standard drill presses and handheld drills
The jobber-length body works in bench-mounted drill presses and portable drills alike, leaving the user free to choose the most convenient machine. The TiN coating reduces friction and extends edge life, which means fewer bit changes during a job. The split-point geometry helps eliminate centre-punching on many surfaces.

Questions about this item
Does the 41628 drill bit come in a pack or is it sold individually?
The supplier title lists a single 41628 jobber drill bit, so it ships as one piece. No case or extra bits are mentioned.
When should I choose the 7/16 inch size over other fractional sizes?
Choose the 7/16 inch bit when the hole diameter must be exactly .4375 inch. The 135 degree split point helps it start cleanly in metal.
How does the 135 degree split point perform in a hand drill?
The 135 degree split point reduces walking on contact, so the bit centres quickly in steel when used in a standard hand drill.
