15/32 inch jobber drill bit
This Chicago-Latrobe 41630 drill bit is built for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic. The 135 degree split point reduces walking and starts holes cleanly without a centre punch. It suits maintenance technicians, fabricators and DIY users who need a reliable fractional-size bit for everyday tasks.
High-speed steel with TiN coating
The bit is made from high-speed steel and finished with a titanium nitride coating that resists wear and heat during extended use. Its jobber length provides standard reach for most drill presses and hand drills, while the straight shank fits common three-jaw chucks without adapters. No coolant holes are present, so dry cutting or external lubrication is required.
Check chuck capacity and material thickness
Verify that your drill chuck accepts a 15/32 inch shank before ordering. The bit has no internal coolant passages, so it is not suited for deep-hole drilling that demands through-tool lubrication. Users needing a different point angle, a reduced-shank version or a coolant-through design should look for an alternative specification.

Questions about this item
What does the 135-degree split point on this drill bit do?
The 135-degree split point reduces walking and starts cutting on contact for faster penetration in metal.
What shank size does the 15/32-inch jobber bit require?
The shank matches the 15/32-inch diameter, so it needs a chuck that opens to at least .4688 inches.
How do I install this bit without damaging the TiN coating?
Insert the bit fully into the chuck jaws, tighten securely on the shank, and avoid over-tightening which can mar the coating.
